Oracle would like to thank the developers working for organizations like Amazon, NTT Data, Red Hat, SAP and Tencent for their notable contributions. Going through the issues and collating the organization data from assignees results in the following chart of organizations sponsoring the development of contributions in Java 17: In Java 17, of the 2,645 JIRA issues marked as fixed, 1,774 were completed by Oracle, while 871 were contributed by other members of the Java community. Of the 12,733 JIRA issues marked as fixed in Java 12 through Java 17 at the time of their GA, 9,218 were completed by people working for Oracle while 3,515 were contributed by individual developers and developers working for other organizations. Each change is represented in a single commit for a single issue in the JDK Bug System. The changes range from significant new features to small enhancements to routine maintenance, bug fixes, and documentation improvements. Instead of making tens of thousands of fixes and delivering close to one hundred JEPs (JDK Enhancement Proposals) every few years as we did with yesteryear Major Releases, enhancements are delivered in leaner Feature Releases on a more manageable, predictable six-month schedule. The rate of change over time in the JDK releases has remained largely constant for years, but under the six-month cadence the pace at which production-ready features and improvements are delivered has vastly improved. Java SE Subscribers get access to Oracle’s Java SE Support and commercial features such as GraalVM Enterprise, Java Management Service and the Advanced Management Console.Īs with previous releases, with Java 17, we continue to celebrate the contributions from many individuals and organizations in the OpenJDK Community - we all build Java, together!

#OPENJDK 7 JVM INTERNALS FULL#
Oracle has announced plans to shorten the time between future LTS releases, from 3 years to 2 years so you should expect the next LTS to be Java 21 in September of 2023.Īnother important change with Oracle JDK 17 is new simple license terms which will allow companies to use Oracle JDK 17, including the quarterly performance, stability, and security patches, at no cost for at least the next three years, allowing one full year of overlap with the next LTS release. Java 17 is the second long-term support (LTS) under the release cadence announced in 2018. Oracle JDK 18, the next six month cadence release is now scheduled for in March 2022.
#OPENJDK 7 JVM INTERNALS UPDATE#
As an LTS release, Oracle JDK 17 will receive performance, stability and security updates for at least 8 years following the Oracle Critical Patch Update (CPU) schedule as outlined in the Oracle Java SE Support Roadmap. Oracle now offers JDK 17 for developers, end-users, and enterprises. According to an IDC report over ten million developers, representing 75% of full-time developers worldwide, use Java, more than any other language. Java’s ability to boost performance, stability, and security continues to make it the world’s most popular programming language.
This level of predictability allows developers to easily manage their adoption of innovation thanks to a steady stream of expected changes. This release is the eighth Feature Release delivered on time through the six-month release cadence.
