If you want some low cost JDK provider where you need the frequent updates as well, you can go ahead for Azul Zing instead of OpenJDK. But if budget is not a concern, I would recommend going for some well known company such as Oracle. Also if you are using Azul for production, make sure to use it for Dev ENV too so as to reproduce issues.

SapMachine is best to use when you want to develop an enterprise-level app using JAVA language, the reason why to use SAPMachine is long-term support from SAP, so the JDK is going to be maintained by SAP, a wide range of installers available to install almost all the system like Windows, Mac, Linux are supported

Oracle was costlier whereas OpenJDK had less frequent updates. Azul was average of both of them, so it was choosen.
