Overall Satisfaction with Oracle Java SE

Java SE supports most of the company's microservices. It's the backbone of the company, where most of the processes run on, including product development, online services, streaming pipeline and offline data warehouse solutions. Java is really widely used and is one of the dominant language here in production and dev.
  • Java is very reliable.
  • Java is commonly used, so the community is very strong.
  • Support is lacking. Response for bug reports are slow and less than satisfactory.
  • [We're struggling with] Lack of support. Support feels really distant and unreachable.
Azul provides comparable services to Oracle Java SE. Compared to Oracle Java SE, support from Azul is more responsive and reachable. The downside is that the customer base of Azul system is much smaller compared to Oracle, so online resources are a little hard to search. But it has been more than made up for with its support.
I have never gotten a satisfactory response from Oracle support for my questions.

Oracle Java SE is well suited for most internet solutions, including software development, online services, data streaming processing pipeline, offline warehouse, and big data analysis. Its rich ecosystem really enables most all the imaginable problems we face in both large and small scale, both online and offline. The only downside might be that the the ecosystem might be a little overwhelming to begin with.
