Our Team
BellSoft founders Alex Belokrylov and Aleksei Voitylov are veterans of Sun Microsystems and Oracle Corporation. Their expertise comes from working on Embedded Java SE and the IoT market.
They decided to form BellSoft after Oracle’s changes to the Java distribution and pricing model.
The goal was to provide the performant runtime; swift, reliable support; and enhanced security for Java developers and enterprises all over the world.
Their experience developing Java for embedded systems convinced them that limiting resources for services in the cloud is similar to executing Java on a constrained embedded platform.
This inspired them to create the runtime that provides the best performance and saves valuable cloud resources.
