A server JRE should be used when deploying Java applications on servers. It includes tools for JVM monitoring and tools commonly required for server applications, but does not include browser integration (the Java plug-in), auto-update, an installer or development tools such as a compiler.
A Java Development Kit JDK is suitable for Java development tasks. It includes the JRE and server JRE components as well as development tools such as compiler, debugger, monitoring tools and others.
A Java Runtime Environment JRE is suitable for end users running Java on a desktop and is suitable for most end-user needs.
