There's no Java for / in Spark, but, yes I can't see a scenario where a
minor JVM update would break Spark.
Not 100% impossible - I'm thinking of obscure timezone definition updates,
changes to supported crypto algorithms, etc.
But that should be extremely rare.
I think we'd always recommend the latest maintenance release and I think
our test envs have a pretty new Java 8, 11, etc.
