Azul Zulu Builds of OpenJDK are now available as Docker Official Images on Docker Hub. The images are TCK-verified, cryptographically signed with Azul's GPG key, and automatically rebuilt when upstream base images are patched. Supported Java versions include 8, 11, 17, 21, and 25, with JDK, JRE, and headless variants on Debian base images. This is aimed at teams standardizing Java base images, hardening software supply chains with SBOMs and provenance, and reducing inconsistency across services. More base images and future Java releases are planned under the same Official Images namespace.
