Thanks Christopher,

I was looking for an easy way to spin up an Accumulo instance(s), oh well.  
I'll take your advice and do on AWS what I did on Azure--roll my own HAZoo.  
I need at least jdk 13 because I *must* interop with Julia.  Actually, I only 
need my java access library, which uses the Accumulo client to be at jdk 13 or 
better.
I'll try running the DB at jdk 11 and the client at 13 and see how it goes.

Cheers

    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.

Apache Accumulo on Amazon EMR, which should be just what I need but it is five 
years old.  It gives a recipe that implies that Accumulo can be installed from 
a staged place within AWS.  Does anyone know if one could simply update the 
version numbers make a go of it?
