Focusing on the Java Roadmap from a Business Standpoint
summary
Oracle now ships OpenJDK binaries for Linux, Windows and macOS (64-bit only) and moves Java to a six-month cadence for feature releases; non‑LTS builds get security fixes only for that six‑month window. Long‑term support appears every ~three years with an eight-year LTS commitment (5 years premier + 3 years extended) under a commercial Java SE subscription, which also supplies stability and performance patches. Java Web Start is deprecated past Java 8, JavaFX becomes a separate library, and licensing differs: GPLv2 with classpath exception vs commercial OTN terms.
