EZweb > EZ Appli (BREW)
EZ Appli (BREW) (EZアプリ (BREW)) is an application for EZweb devices as the successor to EZ Appli (Java). (In later stages, with the introduction of EZ Appli (J), it was renamed to EZ Appli (B) (EZアプリ (B)).)
Among Keitai service, it is the only one that operates on "BREW" instead of Java. BREW is a software execution environment for MSM chipsets manufactured and sold by Qualcomm. Unlike Java, which relies on a virtual machine, BREW executes applications directly, offering higher performance and fewer security constraints. However, this meant that general users were not free to distribute applications. It required being a corporate entity and undergoing strict screening by KDDI. (Subsequently, Open Appli was implemented for general users.)
