The HipHop Virtual Machine (HHVM) is an open-source virtual machine that was specifically developed to run programs written in Hack, a programming language. This was created by Meta, formerly known as Facebook<\/a>[1]<\/a><\/sup><\/span>, as a successor to HipHop for PHP (HPHPc). HHVM operates based on the Just-In-Time (JIT) compilation principle, a method aimed at enhancing code execution efficiency. It introduced an intermediate bytecode format, HHBC, which simplifies both development and deployment processes. HHVM is known for its superior performance, including high web server throughput, low latency, and dynamic optimization of x86-64 machine code. It’s associated with other tech like LLVM, Parrot virtual machine, and Phalanger. HHVM’s source code can be found on GitHub<\/a>[2]<\/a><\/sup><\/span> and it’s licensed under PHP and Zend Licenses.<\/p>\n
