Java in AL2023

AL2023 provides several versions of Amazon Corretto to support Java based workloads. All Java based packages included in AL2023 are built with Amazon Corretto 17 17.

Corretto is a build of the Open Java Development Kit (OpenJDK) with long-term support from Amazon. Corretto is certified using the Java Technical Compatibility Kit (TCK) to ensure that it meets the Java SE standard and is available on Linux, Windows, and macOS.

There is an Amazon Corretto package available for each of Corretto 1.8.0, Corretto 11, and Corretto 17.

Each Corretto version in AL2023 is supported for the same period of time as the Corretto version is, or until the end of life of AL2023, whichever is sooner. For more information, see Amazon Linux package support statements and the Amazon Corretto FAQs.
