*sigh* The only significant user-facing differences are the garbage collection strategies available and the monitoring/profiling tools.
It's a good business move for oracle, as the realtime garbage collector from JRocket is licenced for an additional fee, so they'll have a bigger audience for that particular revenue stream. It'll likely only affect people in ops, so nothing to see here, move along quietly please.
