Hmm. Very nice, but if those changes aren't ported back to OpenJDK, that's locking you into Amazon in a very un-Java-ry way.

  There's no incompatible changes that AWS does that could lock you in. They're just changing the vendor strings, and for older builds back-porting fixes that are important to them. The only major difference is Corretto enables an alternative GC, Shenandoah, which was originally implemented by RedHat. This has been mainlined for a long time now, but Oracle does not ship it. It is available in the Azul and RedHat builds as well.

  How is this the top comment? These aren’t changes Amazon invented out of nowhere. This is JDK 18. Look it up.
