Overall Satisfaction with Azul Platform Prime

I couldn’t see much impact on performance, but I saw after moving to Azul Zing, GC logs started flooding my console, even after taking proper care. Also the support from Azul team during initial days was highly poor. Even now, the support is average as my team faced issues, they were not so satisfied with the support.
  • Costing
  • Support
  • GC logging
  • Reduced infra cost than Oracle
It’s just average, same as other providers. Rather High CPU usage spikes are seen sometimes and also CPU and memory usage is increased for same throughput
Support was way too poor during initial time. Now it has become average.
Oracle was costlier whereas OpenJDK had less frequent updates. Azul was average of both of them, so it was choosen.

Do you think Azul Platform Prime delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Azul Platform Prime's feature set?

Yes

Did Azul Platform Prime live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Azul Platform Prime go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Azul Platform Prime again?

Yes

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.
