    We’d love to but we do have some legitimate needs for it since Oracle software requires their jvm. It’s a massive pain in the ass.

      Openjdk: https://openjdk.org/

      Or for people that use jre or want installers: https://adoptopenjdk.net/releases.html

      We just went through all of this and we just switched to openjdk without issues.

        You didn’t seem to understand. Oracle only supports their own jvm when running their software that uses Java (e.g. weblogic).

            Oh - sorry, Oracle offers a free “entitlement” to use the JVM when used with their software if it’s required. We don’t pay extra for the Oracle JVM.

            It’s not about functionality. When you’re paying for licensing and support you need to use supported versions of things. If you call up about an issue with the database and you’re running an unsupported os or Java version they hang up on you.
