Is it possible to upgrade the Oracle JVM inside the Oracle DBMS?

Rajesh MartinAug 28 2019 — edited Aug 29 2019

I am trying to understand how the Embedded Oracle JVM works ( The JVM used to run Java Stored Procedures and Triggers ).

  1. Is it possible to upgrade the existing embedded JVM?
  2. Is it possible to configure Oracle RDBMS so that it uses an externally installed JRE as its embedded JVM?
  3. If the answer to 2. above is 'yes', Is it possible to use any version of JVM as the embedded JVM? ( Or is there a compatibility matrix for each Oracle version )
  4. Is it possible to have multiple embedded JVMs ( one for each Java version ) and to let the code decide which JVM it should run on? ( I saw a switch -edition for loadjava, but it was not clear what it was meant for )

Even partial answers would be much appreciated
