Hi, I'm not a Java dev and don't know a lot about the Java world, and it seems Oracle have recently started to charge for there JRE for Java 8.
Then I see there is OpenJDK, where there is various free builds of Java.... Now I'm kind of lost as there doesn't seem to be a definitive guide on what to choose to run Kafka - Can you run Kafka on an OpenJDK? - Is it known that it 100% works ? ( or at least as well as the oracle jre) - Is there a tradeoff of using an OpenJDK build? - for instance if you choose something like https://aws.amazon.com/corretto/ is it going to work? or is there better recommendations for what to run Kafka on? - What's the difference between Java 8 and 11 for Kafka? Is there one I should be using over the other? Is there a good guide out there that explains things in relation to Kafka? Regards, Keith
