Java 8 vs Java 11 for AEM 6.x to AEM 6.5

If upgrading from a Java 8 based AEM 6.x to AEM 6.5, does it make sense to ultimately run AEM 6.5 using Java 11?

Outside of handling any AEM 6.5 system specific issues with Java 11, is it likely AEM 6.1 - 6.3 site code bases will have additional issues running in AEM 6.5 with Java 11, assuming the site code bases worked in AEM 6.5 with Java 8.

If so, how risky might it be to continue running AEM 6.5 with Java 8 vs. the effort needed to fix potential site code issues to run it with Java 11?

Hi @this-that-the-otter ,

      There is no issues from java8 to java11 for aem6.5.

Java11 is required for Adobe cloud SDK.

Java being backward compatible, I dont think you would see any major issues upgrading from Java 8 to Java 11.
