Nitsan Wakart reopened CASSANDRA-10196:
---------------------------------------
> Documentation does not list Zing/Zulu as compatible JVMs
> --------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CASSANDRA-10196
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-10196
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Documentation & website
> Reporter: Nitsan Wakart
> Priority: Trivial
>
> On the http://wiki.apache.org/cassandra/GettingStarted page the following is
> mentioned under pre-requisites:
> "Cassandra requires the most stable version of Java 7 or 8 you can deploy,
> preferably the Oracle/Sun JVM. Cassandra also runs on OpenJDK and the IBM
> JVM. (It will NOT run on JRockit, which is only compatible with Java 6.)"
> I work for Azul, the Zing and Zulu JVMs vendor, and was surprised not to find
> them mentioned given the many clients we have who deploy Cassandra. It seems
> strange that an Open Source project would state such preference to a
> commercial vendor.
> I would think that a more neutral statement would be suitable to the effect
> that: "Cassandra requires a Java 7/8 compatible JVM and known to work with
> the following JVMs (A,B,C etc)."
> It also seems fair to mention the range of JVMs under which releases are
> officially tested/certified (is there a release certification suite or
> something similar?).
