# AWS SDK for Java

The **AWS SDK for Java** enables Java developers to easily work with [Amazon Web Services][aws] and
build scalable solutions with Amazon S3, Amazon DynamoDB, Amazon Glacier, and more.

See the [AWS SDK for Java 2.x][aws-sdk-for-java-2x] for how to get started.

## End-of-Support on December 31, 2025 ##

[The AWS SDK for Java 1.x reached end-of-support on December 31, 2025][deprecation-announcement-post]. The SDK no longer receives updates or releases. 
Previously published releases will continue to be available via public package managers and the code will remain on GitHub.

We recommend that you [migrate to the AWS SDK for Java 2.x][migration-guide]. The AWS SDK for Java 2.x provides 
improved features, enhanced performance, and continued support from AWS. By adopting the latest version of the SDK, 
developers can ensure the security, compatibility, and stability of their solutions on AWS. Updating also allows you to 
leverage the latest services and innovations from AWS.

## Release Notes ##
Changes to the SDK beginning with version 1.12.1 (June 2021) are tracked in [CHANGELOG.md][changes-file].

Changes in the _retired_ 1.11.x series of the SDK, beginning with version 1.11.82, 
are listed in the [CHANGELOG-1.11.x.md](./changelogs/CHANGELOG-1.11.x.md) file.

## Getting Started with AWS

Use [the AWS SDK for Java 2.x to get started][sdk-v2-getting-started].

## Using the AWS SDK for Java 1.x

The AWS SDK for Java 1.x is in [maintenance mode][maintenance-mode-post], so we recommend that you use the 
[AWS SDK for Java 2.x][aws-sdk-for-java-2x].

#### Minimum requirements ####

To run the AWS SDK for Java 1.x, you will need **Java 1.8+**. For more information about the requirements and optimum
settings for the SDK, please see the [Installing a Java Development Environment][docs-java-env]
section of the developer guide.

#### Install the 1.x SDK ####

You can use the AWS SDK for Java 1.x in your project by consuming it from Maven. Import
the [aws-java-sdk-bom][] and specify the SDK Maven modules that your project needs in the
dependencies.

##### Importing the 1.x BOM #####

```xml
<dependencyManagement>
  <dependencies>
    <dependency>
      <groupId>com.amazonaws</groupId>
      <artifactId>aws-java-sdk-bom</artifactId>
      <version>1.12.797</version>
      <type>pom</type>
      <scope>import</scope>
    </dependency>
  </dependencies>
</dependencyManagement>
```

##### Using the 1.x SDK Maven modules #####

```xml
<dependencies>
  <dependency>
    <groupId>com.amazonaws</groupId>
    <artifactId>aws-java-sdk-ec2</artifactId>
  </dependency>
  <dependency>
    <groupId>com.amazonaws</groupId>
    <artifactId>aws-java-sdk-s3</artifactId>
  </dependency>
  <dependency>
    <groupId>com.amazonaws</groupId>
    <artifactId>aws-java-sdk-dynamodb</artifactId>
  </dependency>
</dependencies>
```

See the [Set up the AWS SDK for Java 1.x][docs-setup] section of the developer guide for more
information about installing the 1.x SDK through other means.

## Building From Source

Once you check out the code from GitHub, you can build it using Maven. To disable the GPG-signing
in the build, use:

```sh
mvn clean install -Dgpg.skip=true
```

## Maintenance and Support for SDK Major Versions

For information about maintenance and support for SDK major versions and their underlying dependencies, see the following in the AWS SDKs and Tools Reference Guide:

* [AWS SDKs and Tools Maintenance Policy][maintenance-policy]
* [AWS SDKs and Tools Version Support Matrix][version-matrix]

## AWS SDK for Java 2.x

A version 2.x of the SDK is generally available. It is a major rewrite of the 1.x code base, built on top of Java 8+ and adds several frequently requested features. These include support for non-blocking I/O, improved start-up performance, automatic iteration over paginated responses and the ability to plug in a different HTTP implementation at run time.

For more information see the [AWS SDK for Java 2.x Developer Guide][sdk-v2-dev-guide] or check the project repository in https://github.com/aws/aws-sdk-java-v2.

## Maintenance and Support for Java Versions

The AWS SDK for Java 1.x supports Java versions from 8 to 17, but may not be updated to support future Java versions. To ensure long-term compatibility with the latest JDK versions, we recommend that you migrate to the
[AWS SDK for Java 2.x][aws-sdk-for-java-2x].
