Oracle changed their licensing terms so Canonical must remove it from the partner repo (where we install it from now), https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JavaTeam has some details.

AFAIK only Oracle java is supported by hbase and elastic search, so I think we'll want to continue using it instead of openjdk (which is in the main repo).

I'll investigate, but I suspect we'll probably have to just use a script to download and install direct from Oracle.
