I'd check out an opens source JRE like https://adoptopenjdk.net/ and compare your workloads there against the Oracle ones if possible. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

Oracle still releases the OpenJDK code under an open source license, and that will work without the strings. AdoptOpenJDK has Windows binaries if that's the platform you are on. You can even install directly with Ninite. Cheers. Source: over 1 year ago

Use something like https://openjdk.org/ or https://adoptopenjdk.net/. Source: over 1 year ago

And I did mispeak it us 1.11, as that was the latest version with LTS on AdoptOpenJDK at the time it was implemented. I think it was talked down from 16, since it had no LTS. Source: over 1 year ago

Use one of the several free distributions like OpenJDK and you won't have to worry about Oracle licensing. They are virtually the same except a few tools you probably don't use anyway. Source: over 1 year ago

Apache Tika has worked well for me in the past, ended up running it on an AWS Lambda https://tika.apache.org/. - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago

If you accept running Java, the Apache Tika is extremely good at parsing content (https://tika.apache.org/). - Source: Hacker News / 12 months ago

Apache Tika can spit out text from lots of formats. I've used it with grep (or rg) to make a small scale searching of local folders. Tika does a really good job at OCR for finding if text is in a file. Source: over 1 year ago
