[[breaking_816_locale_change]]
==== JDK locale database change

{es} 8.16 changes the version of the JDK that is included from version 22 to version 23. This changes
the locale database that is used by Elasticsearch from the _COMPAT_ database to the _CLDR_ database.
This can result in significant changes to custom textual date field formats,
and calculations for custom week-date date fields.

For more information see <<custom-date-format-locales,custom date formats>>.

If you run {es} 8.16 on JDK version 22 or below, it will use the _COMPAT_ locale database
to match the behavior of 8.15. However, please note that starting with {es} 9.0,
{es} will use the _CLDR_ database regardless of JDK version it is run on.
