.java domain extension

.java is a generic top level domain that Oracle Corporation runs. It is meant for the Java developer community. Oracle uses it to brand and host official resources for the Java platform. There are no stated eligibility rules for registering .java domains, though Oracle controls the registry directly. The domain was delegated to Oracle in early 2015. The name servers and WHOIS are managed by Identity Digital. The registry contact and technical operations are handled through teams at Markmonitor and Identity Digital.

Oracle applied for .java as part of ICANN's new gTLD program. The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority delegated .java to Oracle Corporation on February 27, 2015. The record shows Registration date January 15, 2015. Oracle is the sole operator and has not opened general registration to the public.
