Hi, Igniters! As part of this proposal I would also like to discuss the JDK vendors we are using on our CI platforms TeamCIty. Historically, Ignite 2.x is being built under Oracle's edition - mostly because of some features like JFR or similar. However today we have pretty much solid alternative represented by OpenJDK and its most popular build Eclipse Temurin, which provides every required version for our needs (and especially LTS versions 1.8, 11 and 17) with all necessary updates.
So, I suggest we update our build agents for TeamCity accordingly, provide OpenJDK framework for those 3 major versions and discontinue Oracle's builds.
