Microsoft has contributed to the OpenJDK project and has also been able to develop support for the Mac M1 chipset. This is amazing that they've seen the importance of supporting all silicon in the spirit of Java. This is very commendable from the tech titan and we look forward to more improvements and enhancements.

Well Suited; Open JDK and Java micro services development framework. Cloud native buildpacks and runtimes. Less appropriate for Reactive programming and data flows. Tekton pipeline integration can be also open to improvement. Open source support and developer communities addon are good with very good documentation. Tutorials and howto docs are also good structured

Cons
  • Since it's open source, enterprise support is less than as if you are running paid like an Oracle JDK.
  • Performance is improving and is I would say on par with paid solutions, this could improve to help with growth.
  • Stability will happen over time with more contributions and fixes

Microsoft Build of OpenJDK stacks up against Oracle JDK (paid) very well. From both a performance, implementation, library support, and collaboration aspect.
