Google will switch to Open JDK in Android N

Java hii

Google has confirmed that when the next version of Android will rollout, it will use the OpenJDK, the open source Java Development Kit from Oracle, instead of proprietary JDK that Google currently uses for its Java APIs. The news was first spotted by users on Y Combinator's Hacker News and then confirmed by VentureBeat.

Google is going to use OpenJDK because Android is an open Source platform so it makes sense that using OpenJDK will not only simplify code for developer to build apps, bit it allows them to make more contributions to the OpenJDK platform. Java is owned by Oracle as it had acquired Java from Sun Microsystems in 2010. This change of APIs for Android N and other Next versions of Android could make it  easier for the developer to make apps and other services, While it will not affect users that way they use Android.
