Amazon runs Corretto internally on thousands of production services and Corretto is certified as compatible with the Java SE standard. Corretto comes with long-term support that will include performance enhancements and security fixes. They chose a third route: fork OpenJDK and maintain it themselves, which became AWS Corretto.Īmazon Corretto is a no-cost, multiplatform, production-ready distribution of the Open Java Development Kit (OpenJDK). They had the same issue: a licensing bill from Oracle or OpenJDK. They run a lot of Java applications at AWS - both for internal use and customers. OpenJDK was offered by FileMaker as an option for those not wanting to pay a commercial licensing fee to Oracle, but many businesses are reluctant to install software with no official support in production systems (many still do and just don’t realize they do, but that’s another blog post). To use web-related services, you must install either OpenJDK or Oracle JRE. In the long term, FileMaker is getting rid of Java, but for now, FileMaker uses Java…įileMaker just released FileMaker Server version 18.0.2 which no longer installs a Java Runtime Environment (JRE) for you.ĭue to Java licensing changes, FileMaker Server no longer installs a Java Runtime Environment (JRE), needed for using Custom Web Publishing and FileMaker WebDirect.
The Java update started prompting people concerning this in April 2019. Previously, we wrote about the questions around the end of commercial support for JRE 8 and what that means for FileMaker Server:Īs of February 2019, Oracle changed their licensing model to now require paid licenses in order to use Java in business and production capacities.
