Oracle Java [SE Subscription] is the part of our routine IT operations to automate and development different software architectures mainly based on oracle family since many years and after Java turned into subscription based software, we happily subscribed for the service for smooth operations of our Java based services.

- Can be easily controlled by backend support without direct involvement of end users.
- Frequent updates keeping in view the latest technology requirements.
- Vast applications are supported under java architecture.
- Subscription fees are little high
- Too often updates without any special integral changes.
Not yet, but I'm interested in Oracle user groups - I am not member of any user group yet but interested to be part of Java user group to learn and improve my java coding skills and backend implementation of java for application development.

For our professional customers, where reliability is a top priority, the small fee of oracle subscription much more valuable than the many free platforms available for the returned value.

- High-value server deployments, which requires the most reliable technologies available
- For on-premise backend servers
- Some smaller cloud solutions
- The payment itself is hard to describe sometimes with so many free alternative available
- Subscription ends will make app unusable without switching to openJDK

Java is the easiest language to support because of the worldwide adoption, especially as the transferrable skills carry over to android development.
This portability is what put Java on the map in the first place, where the virtual machine can run on Linux, windows, and potentially arm/raspberry pi/Arduino as well. The ability to run on multiple platforms with low-level access along with the low barrier to entry make Oracle Java SE Subscription a winner. It's free!
