Released May 25 after being in a preview phase since April, Microsoft Build of OpenJDK includes binaries for Java 11, based on OpenJDK 11.0.11+9 server and desktop environments on MacOS, Windows, and Linux. OpenJDK 11 releases of Microsoft Build of OpenJDK are long-term support (LTS) releases and will be updated quarterly. Microsoft Build of OpenJDK is downloadable from microsoft.com.
Microsoft Build of OpenJDK binaries might contain fixes and enhancements or backported fixes and enhancements deemed important to customers and internal users but that have not been incorporated in the upstream OpenJDK project. These fixes and enhancements will be signposted in release notes with source code available.
With general availability, Microsoft also is releasing Microsoft Build of OpenJDK Docker images and corresponding Docker files. These are intended to be used by any Java applications or Java application components.
