What is the State of Oracle Java Support?Achieve Cost Savings with OpenJDK LTS AlternativesUntil January 2019, over 70% of commercial Java applications used the Oracle JDK JVM. However, Oracle’s new licensing requirements for Java SE (Oracle’s JDK runtime) updates and support has many application development and delivery teams sizing up their options.The least disruptive is to keep using Oracle Java and manage new fees. For many organizations this means paying million-dollar Oracle invoices or risk licensing compliance fines. Industry analysts, such as Gartner and Forrester are recommending OpenJDK adoption with supported and certified builds of OpenJDK from other vendors, such as OpenLogic.Benefits of Java Support from OpenLogic Cost-Savings OpenJDK LTS Quarterly Updates Security Patches On-Demand Multi-Platform Support Support for all Java Distributions Guidance beyond Java Support Get Enterprise & Open Source Java (OpenJDK) SupportOpenLogic offers commercial support for all Java distributions and provides its own free, certified OpenJDK builds.OpenJDK DownloadsOpenLogic offers free distributions of OpenJDK 8, and free, certified distributions of OpenJDK 11 for Linux, Windows, MacOS, and Docker images.

OpenLogic has a long and rich history of OpenJDK community contributions. We believe in and support the open source community development model, and that is reflected in our contributions.In August 2019, OpenLogic recognized that the current state of Java WebStart technology in OpenJDK was not as capable as the Oracle JDK equivalent. The build was missing critical functionality such as site exceptions, jar key matching, Windows Proxy settings, and other functions.OpenLogic added functionality to IcedTea-Web to bring parity with Oracle’s WebStart distribution. These upgrades were accepted into IcedTea-Web 2.0.OpenLogic's Java Support Roadmap Java SE GA DateEnd of Oracle Public UpdatesEnd of Commercial Support Oracle Java SEEnd of OpenLogic OpenJDK SupportJava 8 LTS3/1/20141/1/201912/1/203012/1/2030Java 11 LTS9/1/20183/1/20199/1/20269/1/2028Java 163/1/20219/1/20219/1/2021Coming 2021Java 17 LTS9/1/20213/1/20229/1/2029Coming 2021Java 139/1/20193/1/20203/1/2020Coming 2021Java 159/1/20203/1/20213/1/2021Coming 2021Java 8 LTSJava SE GA Date3/1/2014End of Oracle Public Updates1/1/2019End of Commercial Support Oracle Java SE12/1/2030OpenLogic OpenJDK12/1/2030Java 11 LTSJava SE GA Date9/1/2018End of Oracle Public Updates3/1/2019End of Commercial Support Oracle Java SE9/1/2026OpenLogic OpenJDK9/1/2028Java 16Java SE GA Date3/1/2021End of Oracle Public Updates9/1/2021End of Commercial Support Oracle Java SE9/1/2026OpenLogic OpenJDKComing 2021Java 17 LTSJava SE GA Date9/1/2021End of Oracle Public Updates3/1/2022End of Commercial Support Oracle Java SE9/1/2029OpenLogic OpenJDKComing 2021Java 13Java SE GA Date9/1/2019End of Oracle Public Updates3/1/2020End of Commercial Support Oracle Java SE3/1/2020OpenLogic OpenJDKComing 2021Java 15Java SE GA Date9/1/2020End of Oracle Public Updates3/1/2021End of Commercial Support Oracle Java SE3/1/2021OpenLogic OpenJDKComing 2021Open Source Support Beyond Java SupportOpenLogic goes beyond long-term support for OpenJDK and Java by providing consultative services and guidance for open source technology across your entire stack.Migration ServicesOur Enterprise Architects are experienced in Oracle to OpenJDK migrations and can help you from roadmap to deployment and beyond.Support OptionsWith guaranteed SLAs, we deliver immediate access to a team of Enterprise Architects who can help you reach resolutions faster.Innovation GuidanceGet vendor-neutral, unbiased guidance to help your team innovate faster and more freely through open source.Additional Reading on the State of Java Support & OpenJDK May 28, 2020 What is OpenJDK?Development October 29, 2019 My Oracle Java License Got Expensive: What Are My Options?DevelopmentOpen Source November 11, 2019 Considering OpenJDK?
