You had different JVM, some could run on smart card https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_Card https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_Card
There were also java realtime JVM with different latency promises.
Basically you had different versions of the JVM, optimized for its use case. I guess when Sun was bought by Oracle, everything died.

Folks' hate for Oracle make them forget that the Java push into the industry was not Sun alone, rather Sun, Oracle, IBM trio. Oracle has since early Java days embraced the technology, and even had their own flavour of JavaStation, called Network Computer. Oracle has been a better Java steward than the alternative, being Java dying in version 6, losing Maxime (whose ideas live on GraalVM),... No one else jumped to acquire Sun, and Google missed their opportunity to own Java, after torpedoing Sun. Nowadays Google has their own .NET.
