Classification: Confidential z/OS 2.3 is EOS Sep. 2021. JAVA8 is not( I just ordered it for my z/OS 2.4 upgrade). I don't follow JAVA closely enough to wonder about what happened to JAVA9/JAVA10 on z/OS. The last time I looked, IBM had a set of "JAVA web pages" with EOS and support info.

Fwiw, Linux on z has Java 11 available today, of course that doesn't have JZOS or all the other z/OS complexity. I hope I was being facetious as z/OS 2.3 EOS is Sept 2022.
