That article, and these questions, seem to be about AWS support of Accumulo versions using Amazon's EMR. It might be best to ask Amazon directly about what they do and don't support, since it's their recipe and their features. As I understand it, though, EMR is just a specialized distribution of Hadoop. You don't necessarily have to use EMR to run Hadoop in AWS. So, even if Amazon doesn't support newer Accumulo versions on EMR using the recipe you found, you could just try to run your own Hadoop instance on EC2.
Regarding running Accumulo 2.0 and Java 13+: while we have tried to address many issues running Java 11 with Accumulo 2.0, it's possible there are some issues that weren't backported from 2.1. One issue, for example, is that 2.0 still defaults to using CMS instead of G1 for the Java garbage collector. CMS was deprecated and then removed in more recent versions of Java. 2.1 should have really good support for newer Java versions, though when it is released. Although it will require Java 11, I've tried to do development using the latest Java versions (currently using Java 16), to try to detect any new issues that might arise. Please let us know if you find any issues running newer Java versions. I definitely want to try to fix those if we can.
