Actually not, JVM, as the name it is actually an abstract machine which provide environment in which java bytecode can be executed. Now JRE it is a software that actually exits it consists of libraries and other files that JVM uses at run time. Lastly JDK, as per name Java Development Kit is a complete package for development using java. It consists of JRE and devlopment tools like javac.
