I can't advise you on the license terms for Oracle JRE, you would need to look at this yourself to determine if the license is compatible with your use. I can say that openjdk's license is compatible with this use, and is worth a look if Oracle JRE doesn't work out since the performance should be comparable for many uses.

Mike Terry's deb2snap script may be helpful to you here: https://github.com/mikix/deb2snap Integrating this into the standard snappy developer experience is a work in progress, but in the meantime this is a step in the right direction. > It should be better to have a java snap to install and use when needed. > What do you think? By design, snap packages have no dependencies, except on frameworks which are used to mediate shared resources on the system. By bundling your language runtime instead of depending on another package to provide it, you're assured that your snap will behave consistently on all systems, and that there's no risk of it suddenly breaking on a Snappy Ubuntu system as a result of a new version of that dependency.
