> This is a quite popular question about JDK 17 status for Cassandra 5.0.
> It looks like it is time to mark it as production ready, reasons:
> * Cassandra 5.0.x is stable enough with 4 bug fix releases (5.0.0 released
> in Sep 2024, so we have it already for 8 months), I am not aware about any
> open severe issues with JDK17
> * Our CI runs JDK17 tests for each commit for more than a year
> * JDK17 is a mature LTS version, we already have 1 LTS after it (21) and JDK
> 24 is released.
> * I suppose we may have a vicious cycle: we wait for more feedback from
> users and users wait for the feature to become non-experimental to start to
> adopt it more widely...
