This page has a little context what the linked builds are:

So these are JDK 8u OpenJDK Project Builds produced by Red Hat on
behalf of the OpenJDK 8u project. Vanilla, vendor neutral, OpenJDK 8u
builds, if you will. Think jdk.java.net GPL builds for OpenJDK 8u after
Red Hat took on leadership of the project. These are being produced as
a curtesy to OpenJDK users.

$ openjdk-8u212-b04/bin/java -version
openjdk version "1.8.0_212"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_212-b04)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.212-b04, mixed mode)

Those are builds produced by the AdoptOpenJDK project on their
infrastructure, tested with their tests, supported by them, etc. They
are mostly identical, but may have additional bits like installers,
IcedTea web integration etc.

$ jdk8u212-b04/bin/java -version
openjdk version "1.8.0_212"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (AdoptOpenJDK)(build 1.8.0_212-b04)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (AdoptOpenJDK)(build 25.212-b04, mixed mode)
