history
Project history and usage
OpenJDK 25 is the open-source reference implementation of Java SE 25 and includes the Java runtime, compiler, standard libraries, diagnostics, packaging, documentation, and development tools. It is an LTS release from most JDK vendors.
Project history
The OpenJDK community was created in November 2006 when initial JDK source code was published under GPLv2. OpenJDK subsequently became the collaborative upstream for open-source Java SE implementations and adopted a strict six-month feature-release cadence.
JDK 25 was produced through the OpenJDK JEP and release processes as the reference implementation of Java SE 25, specified by JSR 400. It reached general availability on 16 September 2025 with eighteen JEPs.
Adoption history
OpenJDK serves as the upstream code base for binaries shipped by multiple vendors and operating-system distributions. Because most vendors treat JDK 25 as an LTS release, its update line is maintained on the established quarterly schedule for fixes and security updates.
How it is used
The package supplies java and javac for running and compiling Java, plus tools for archives, signing, documentation, dependency analysis, debugging, monitoring, flight recording, runtime-image linking, native packaging, JShell, and a minimal web server.
Why package nerds care
OpenJDK is both a language runtime and a full development-toolchain package. Versioned formulae let users keep an LTS toolchain alongside other JDK feature releases, while downstream vendors and distributions build compatible binaries from the shared OpenJDK source and update streams.
Timeline
- 2006-11: The OpenJDK community was created and initial JDK sources were published under GPLv2.
- 2017: The JDK project moved to a strict six-month feature-release cadence.
- 2025-09-16: JDK 25 reached general availability as the Java SE 25 reference implementation.
- 2025-10: The JDK 25 quarterly update series began after the feature release.
- 2026: JDK 25 continued as an LTS line for most vendors with quarterly updates.
Related projects
- OpenJDK 25 is related to the Java SE 25 specification, HotSpot JVM, the JDK Updates Project, and OpenJDK component projects such as Amber, Loom, Panama, and Shenandoah.

Recommended review
Before unattended agent use, check whether the tool reads plaintext credentials, writes remote state, publishes artifacts, or shells out to plugins.
