We use, when ever possible, openjdk as we get support from the
distribution. Support for openjdk be it 7 or 8, manually patching oraclejdk is
time consuming.
RHEL support both openjdk 7 (June 2018) and 8 (October 2020) (see
https://access.redhat.com/articles/1299013), to me it would make sense to keep
openjdk 8 support in cloudstack.
It seems, travis does not support openjdk 8 yet.
