This document compares several Java JSON parsers based on various criteria. It provides an overview of JSON and the Java APIs for processing JSON (JSR 339 and JSR 353). It then evaluates parsers like Jackson, Google GSON, javax.json and others based on criteria like community activity, performance, API features, dependencies and license. The conclusion is that Google GSON is best for small data and Jackson for large data according to previous benchmarks. It asks which parser may be best for RAM-constrained or IoT applications.
