I don't know about other vendors but as far as I can tell, Microsoft is the only vendor providing an aarch64 build of OpenJDK for Windows thus making it available to all those cute Windows on ARM machines.

AFAIK redhat took over the maintenance of java for the releases that are not anymore provided by oracle: https://developers.redhat.com/products/openjdk/download https://developers.redhat.com/products/openjdk/download I do not know why microsoft dupplicates this effort.

  Most likely because it's of strategic importance to them and they don't want to depend on a third party for a critical piece of their infrastructure.

  > I do not know why microsoft dupplicates this effort. Why do you say they are duplicating efforts? The builds on the RedHat page are for: x86 (32-bit), x64 (64-bit x86) but any mention of aarch64, which is what Microsoft has been working on with Azul Systems, is conspicuously missing. (aarch64 or ARM64 is the 64-bit extension of the ARM architecture.)
