The vast majority of people can just use a JDK from any of the other vendors and tell Oracle to pound sand.
Even if you do need paid support, you should pay Azul instead of Oracle, just out of principle.

By paid support, you mean free steak dinners for middle management?
After dealing with Azul people, give me Oracle. Instead of seeing Azul people shuffling a bunch of charts around and making up shit on the fly to make it sound like their garbage product performs better than OpenJDK (it didn't for us. we benchmarked it. but shame on us, because I guess the steak dinners kept rolling in).
Look at this website, do you think it belongs to a legitimate company? https://www.azul.com/
Oracle ones are exactly as layer8 wrote. Moreso, if you also need windows or macos build; there's no Debian or Redhat then.
