Selection of JRE and JDK versions

Upgrade versions of each JDK include odd and even versions, such as Java 8 update 8u73 and Java 8 update 8u74. Which version should I choose?

Production environment Selection 8u73, test environment optional 8u74;

Each release has a odd (CPU) and an even (PSU) number. So in this case, the CPU (critical fixes) and the (Critical plus non-critical fixes)

General recommendation from Oracle in a production environment are to use the CPU releases and start testing the PSU Releas E in your test environments to prepare for the next CPU which would contain the previous PSU plus any new critical updates.
