Likelihood to Recommend
Amazon Corretto is convenient for individuals, businesses, and companies due to its centralized nature. It solves scalability issues and is compatible with most operating systems, simplifying JDK setup. The most attractive feature of this service is its low price. AWS's multiple resources in one place can help smaller or new companies start cheaply. Using JDK is more manageable with proper documentation. It's easy for me to integrate this AWS service with others. Apache Kafka, S3 and Cloudwatch are integrated.

Azul helped use reduce and more efficiently use our AWS EC2 resources. We approached them in Q3 of 2021 with the goal of reducing our overall latency on the JVM 8 platform. They managed to do that for us in such a way that we could expand our options within EC2 for machine architectures and take advantage of additional resources on existing infrastructure that OpenJDK could not at that time.

I'd recommend the platform for teams that are looking to focus on their business problems and not wanting to allocate engineering staff to be full time JVM engineers. I'd also recommend them for companies that have a large extant JVM systems that want a fairly easy way to optimize their current systems without entire rewrites.
