When Oracle announced that it would no longer be allowed to run their Oracle Java SE JDK on production without paying for it for releases after the 1st of January 2019, we wanted to support another JDK to give our customers a choice if they want to pay or use a free JDK.

Support for more (open)JDK brands increases our test efforts exponentially. During development we encountered code that detects the JDK you are running and therefor might break using other JDK builds.

Why we chose the current supported JDKs

Differences between OpenJDK builds

Although all OpenJDK derived builds are in build from the same source code they might be different based on parameters or added components. For example the Shenandoah GC is included in some openJDK builds from JDK 8, but is missing in the Oracle Java SE JDK.
