Amazon Corretto is the best platform for individuals, companies, or businesses to get started at no cost and easily develop and run Java applications in the same environment in the Cloud, on-premises, and/or on local PCs. Great support from AWS, solving all performance and security problems, and able to work on different platforms.

If you want some low cost JDK provider where you need the frequent updates as well, you can go ahead for Azul Zing instead of OpenJDK. But if budget is not a concern, I would recommend going for some well known company such as Oracle. Also if you are using Azul for production, make sure to use it for Dev ENV too so as to reproduce issues.

Oracle was costlier whereas OpenJDK had less frequent updates. Azul was average of both of them, so it was choosen.
