OpenJDK binaries become the primary channel for developers to access the latest innovation in the Java SE platform, the Oracle JDK will remain as a long term support LTS offering for Oracle’s commercial and support customers. They would not be able to get extended support for Java 9 or 10.ĭevelopers who prefer rapid innovation, so that they can leverage new features in production as soon as possible, can use the most recent feature release or an update release thereof and move on to the next one when it ships. If commercial users want to use previous versions of java, they would need to use one of the long term versions like Java 8 or 11. Support for all previous versions would be stopped for all free Java users.
From here on, Oracle would be providing extended support only for long term versions (Java 11 is the latest long term version). Oracle has shifted from the 2-year cycle to a 6-month release cycle to keep up with demands in the technology world.
