Amazon Corretto 8 at a glance
Amazon Corretto 8 is a free distribution of OpenJDK 8 that Amazon maintains and supplies with security and bug fixes. It runs on Windows, Linux and macOS and is commonly used for applications that still depend on Java 8.
Updates follow the quarterly Oracle patch cycles, with additional fixes in between when needed. The version number has several levels that reflect the Java update as well as internal build states. Security-relevant changes often concern the runtime libraries, the certificate store and the TLS implementation.
When updating, test the application against the new build, especially if it depends on specific TLS protocols, disabled cipher suites or the behavior of the certificate store. On servers with several installed JDKs, check the JAVA_HOME variable and the paths in startup scripts and services so that an older runtime is not used by accident after the update.
