I agree - with a new project today you should probably start with JDK 21 (LTS) - it has matured for years now.
I have also the observation that a couple of third party libraries (eg spring) do not support anymore JDK8 and thus security fixes etc are not provided for those. Am 18.01.2024 um 11:14 schrieb Stephen Darlington <sdarling...@apache.org>:
Other than the thread that Roman noted, I'm not aware of any specific plans to move away from Java 8 for Ignite 2.x. As a community-driven project, there are no guarantees but you'll probably be okay for a year or so. Worst case, you can build your own Java 8-compatible version.
Having said that, the Java community as a whole seems to be quite rapidly moving away from it. Many active projects have already dropped support. Java 8 has not had mainstream support for a couple of years already. Hopefully you have plans to migrate to something newer.
Hi Stephen, we were planning on implementing Ignite / GridGain in one of our projects, but we can’t do that if they are going to be dropping Java 8 support in the next year for example. We are looking for something that will continue to
support Java 8 for the next couple of years at least.
Max, are you worried that Ignite will or won't drop Java 8 support?
Hi Max.
I'm working at GridGain, so I think the best thing I could do to help
you is to suggest contacting GridGain representatives, but you already
did it.
