What is AdoptOpenJDK used for?

What is OpenJDK HotSpot?
openjdk.java.net/groups/hotspot. HotSpot, released as Java HotSpot Performance Engine, is a Java virtual machine for desktop and server computers, maintained and distributed by Oracle Corporation.

What happened to AdoptOpenJDK?

Does AdoptOpenJDK include JavaFX?
JavaFX (OpenJFX) As JavaFX is no longer part of OpenJDK, AdoptOpenJDK does not bundle it with its binaries.
Is AdoptOpenJDK free for commercial use?
The Adoptium (formerly AdoptOpenJDK) build is $free, GPL licensed (with Classpath exception so safe for commercial use), and a good choice as it is vendor-neutral and is intended to have 4+ years of security patches.
Is OpenJDK the same as AdoptOpenJDK?
As of March 2019, Oracle will no longer be providing free updates for commercial use of Oracle’s Java 11 (LTS).

Is OpenJDK safe?
In general, using OpenJDK should be safe from “Oracle Java Licensing fee”, unless Oracle attempts to enforce their field-of-use restrictions on the usage of OpenJDK, which would be hard for them to defend in court (since it would violate the GPL license that the OpenJDK uses.)
How does JVM HotSpot work?
Rather than compiling method by method, just in time, the Java HotSpot VM immediately runs the program using an interpreter, and analyzes the code as it runs to detect the critical hot spots in the program. Then it focuses the attention of a global native-code optimizer on the hot spots.
What is Temurin?
The Eclipse Temurin™ project provides code and processes that support the building of runtime binaries and associated technologies that are high performance, enterprise-caliber, cross-platform, open-source licensed, and Java SE TCK-tested for general use across the Java ecosystem.
