Many thanks with the link about the Platforms supported: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/documentation/jdk10certconfig-4417031.html This appears to be a list of the platforms that are supported (certified) by Oracle.  Where can I find the list of platforms that are supported by OpenJDK?  For example, what about the following platforms that don't appear on the Oracle list: Windows x86 Linux x86 aarch32 (ARMv7 32-bit) aarch64 (ARMv8 64-bit) Are all these supported for OpenJDK 9, 10 and 11?

There is actually no such thing as a "supported OpenJDK platform". While I hope things may change in the future, OpenJDK as an organization does not publicize any list of "supported" platforms. Oracle publishes a list of platforms they support, and I presume that Red Hat and SAP and others do the same, but the OpenJDK project itself does not.

With that said, platforms which were previously supported by Oracle (like the one's you mentioned) tend to still work more-or-less well, but they receive no or little testing, and is prone to bit rot.
