GraalVM
Chose GraalVM
GraalVM startup times and memory footprint is unbeatable. Polyglot capability provides greater flexibility and faster development times.
Chose GraalVM
GraalVM allowed language interoperability compared to the other two. Corretto is no better than the default HotSpot JVM in our case and is also lacking in modern versions. Oracle Java has JDK 15 but it doesn't have language interoperability or AOT. GraalVM just hit that nice …

Its well fit for the environment where applications are written in programming languages supported by GraalVM. It's [a] very powerful and reliable, high-performer Java Virtual Machine that provides the Java Development kit i.e JDK that has the ability to compile the Java apps ahead of time. Maintenance of this tool is simple and it [increases] the efficiency of the product since it requires few resources.

Cons
Amazon AWS
  • Amazon Corretto really has short documentation which has been the issue for us in the past resulting in the development issues
  • This service is relatively unknown and less popular which results in the smaller community which means in case you get stuck somewhere it may be difficult for you to the find the resources.
  • No other issues noted as of now by us

  • It should be possible to use GraalVM EE to distribute native images of JavaFX applications for mobile platforms, especially for Apple platforms.
  • Native Images are a game changer. However, compiling complex applications can be a pain. Better support for an improved transition process are a must.

Like all Oracle tools, you can find a lot of documentation and also write down your questions in a forum. Sadly I don't see too many users so far but I hope it'll keep increasing and in a short period we will have more information and ofc issues fixed. So far, everything I needed I could find easily.
