+> [Amazon Corretto](https://aws.amazon.com/corretto/) is a [GPLv2 with CPE](https://openjdk.java.net/legal/gplv2+ce.html)
+> build of the Open Java Development Kit (OpenJDK) with long-term support and patches from Amazon.
+> Corretto is certified using the Java Technical Compatibility Kit (TCK) to ensure it meets the Java
+> SE standard. It is available on Linux, Windows, macOS and Docker.
+
+Initially, only LTS versions of OpenJDK were released.
+Since OpenJDK 15 Corretto follows the same cadence as OpenJDK, with 6-month rapid-release cycle.
+Starting with OpenJDK 11, there is a new LTS releases every 3 years (six OpenJDK releases).
+After OpenJDK 17, the LTS frequency will be increased to every 2 years (four OpenJDK releases).
+
+LTS releases includes performance enhancements and security updates, both from the upstream OpenJDK
+project and from Amazon. The list of Amazon patches can be seen in [each version's documentation](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/corretto/).
+Updates are planned to be released quarterly, but urgent fixes (including security) outside the
+regular quarterly cycle may occur.
+
+Corretto is one of the many builds of OpenJDK. For recommendations on which JDK build to use, check
