文章裡提到了幾個重點，第一個是目前先推出了 Corretto 8 Preview (對應到 OpenJDK 8)，而之後 GA 會推出Ubuntu 與Linux" rel="nofollow,noindex" target="_blank">RHEL 上的套件，另外也打算推出 Corretto 11 (對應到將來的 OpenJDK 11)：

The Corretto 8 preview corresponding to OpenJDK 8 is available at this time for Amazon Linux 2, Microsoft Windows, and macOS platforms and Docker image. Preview builds can be downloaded by visiting aws.amazon.com/corretto. General Availability is planned for Q1 2019, and will also include Ubuntu and Red Hat Enterprise Linux platforms. Corretto 11 builds corresponding to Open JDK 11 on these platforms will follow with ample time for testing before April 2019.

再來是支援期都差不多是四～五年：

Amazon will distribute security updates to Corretto 8 at no cost until at least June, 2023, and to Corretto 11 until at least August, 2024.

這樣在又多了一些選擇...
