The main goal of Adoptium is to promote and support free and open-source high-quality runtimes and associated technology for use across the Java ecosystem.[4] To do so the Adoptium Working Group will build and provide OpenJDK based binaries under the Eclipse Temurin project.[5] In addition to Temurin the WG creates an open test suite for OpenJDK based binaries as part of the Eclipse AQAvit project.[6]
The Working Group has been launched by Alibaba Cloud, Huawei, IBM, , , Microsoft, New Relic, and Red Hat in March 2021.[1]
