How to install an alternative OpenJDK Java runtime to use the RIA based AdminUI

Hi Community

I'm running a 7.0 LTS Engine and heard that no security updates will shipped by oracle for the java runtime enviroment that is required to run the Admin UI of the Engine.

To keep my installation secure with the latest patches, I want to install an alternative JRE based on OpenJdk plus the IcedTea plugin to run Java Webstart apps: https://answers.axonivy.com/questions/3598/java-8-is-out-of-support-what-can-i-do-to-still-use-my-ria-clients-in-the-axon-ivy-engine

Now, how do I properly setup the suggested AdoptOpenJdk+IcedTea bundle on my Windows Server in order to run the AdminUI without any oracle dependencies?

Oracle has decided that they will no longer will publish Update/Bug Fixes/Security Fixes for JDK 8 for free after January 2019. If you want such Update Release after January 2019 you have to buy support from Oracle.

Moreover, Oracle will only publish free update releases for JDK 11 for at least 6 months. After the 6 months you can have update releases only if you buy support from Oracle.

What does this mean for my Axon.ivy Engine? Do I need to pay for Oracle support now or are there other possible solutions that AXON Ivy suggests?
