IIRC we had to move to Corretto when using AWS CodeBuild, because AWS dropped support of AdoptOpenJDK in their CodeBuild container images.

So basically we use AWS distro to run tests and build our docker images, and those images use AdoptOpenJDK; which is not ideal, but so far we have been OK.

Basically, you moved to Corretto because Amazon forced you to. That's great :)

I think this is a common reason for moving to a particular distribution, but also sad to see. Amazon used to be impartial and independent infrastructure provider but as they ingest more and more software, your infrastructure and software now starts to depend on Amazons software.
