Redhat OpenJDK

Open djchapm opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

Hey - Your site is the best I've found for the info we need to choose/discuss JDK Vendors... now there's a release of openjdk by redhat and I'm having trouble discerning licensing as compared to Oracle's OpenJDK License. Relevant Links:

https://access.redhat.com/articles/1299013?extIdCarryOver=true&sc_cid=701f2000001OH7JAAW

https://developers.redhat.com/oraclejdkalternative

The RPM package used by 'dnf install java-17-openjdk' seems like it would be pulling oracle - but instead I see that it has up to date patching provided by redhat:

https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/java-17-openjdk/blob/rawhide/f/java-17-openjdk.spec#_2380

I'm not sure how to evaluate pros/cons of this as compared to Temurin which is our current choice.

Thanks!
