Azul Platform CorePlay Framework
Likelihood to Recommend
I would go for Azul Platform Core where someone needs secure JRE and JDK at a cheaper price where they can afford some CPU memory spikes. If you are highly concerned about the high availability of systems, or CPU memory usage, then, in my opinion, Azul Platform Core should be avoided. Also, considering what I believe to be their poor support, you might want to reconsider buying this subscription.

Support Rating
In my opinion, it offered very poor support, and I believe their tech support does not have much knowledge of their own systems.
