Just now I noticed that the ColdFusion information pages, that have JVM 11 being used, say that the Java Vendor URL is https://openjdk.java.net/, but the vendor is Oracle. I have no way of verifying, but our team say they are installing from the Adobe downloads site. Is Adobe providing OpenJDK? I was under the impression they were providing licensed Oracle JVMs. Anyone have insight on this?

FWIW, I just checked a couple of my servers and see the same thing. I downloaded and installed 11.0.19 from Adobe's 3rd party installers page. Java Version 11.0.19 Java Vendor Oracle Corporation Java Vendor URL https://openjdk.java.net/

Scroll down to the bottom of the OpenJDK page - Oracle runs it.

I've never seen the Java Vendor listed as anything other that Oracle so I don't believe Adobe is doing anything special with it other than putting the same version on their website that you can get from Oracle.

Carl, I did see that. Just seems odd. As of JDK 11, it appears Open JDK and Oracle JDK are essentially functionally identical with some packaging differences. But I was led to believe that we get a commercially licensed JVM from Oracle via Adobe. I'm wondering if this is just a label technicality or we are truly installing OpenJDK binaries?

@Chris Tierney I suspect (with no real evidence) that the agreement Adobe struck with Oracle a while back (when Oracle restricted JRE/JDK licensing) was Adobe could only redistribute the OpenJDK releases and not the full Oracle commercial releases. By redistribute, I mean include in the ColdFusion installers and on the Adobe ColdFusion downloads page.
