The most significant change is that the new support subscription is not free. What do these changes mean for current commercial users of Java SE? The Java SE Advanced perpetual license offerings are no longer sold or available from Oracle except by special approval. The new annual support subscription also includes the rights to use the Java SE enterprise deployment tools that were previously available under the Java SE Advanced product offerings as well as all of the other components that make up the platform, including the Java Development Kit (JDK) and Java Runtime Environment (JRE).
All other versions of Java SE – 6, 7, 9, 10, 11, and 12 – and any patches or updates that are released on or after April 15 will also require a support subscription.
Update 211 (8u211) is the first version 8 update to require subscription support. Update 202 (8u202) is the last free public update for Java SE Version 8. Oracle now requires that all commercial users of Java SE purchase an annual Java SE subscription to obtain any future patches and updates, or other support services, for Java SE release 8 or higher. Here are the most important ones to keep in mind and what you should be doing right now. This is a major adjustment and we’re sure you have some questions. Non-commercial users will have to start paying in January 2020. This change affects most, if not all, commercial users of the platform. If you use the Java SE (Standard Edition) platform, please be advised:Īs of April 15, 2019, access to updates and security patches for all versions of Java SE require a support subscription.
