Sean Busbey commented on HBASE-16041:
-------------------------------------
possibly a dup of HBASE-15624, but definitely blocked on it.
> Update build pipeline to JDK8
> -----------------------------

> Key: HBASE-16041
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-16041
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Jurriaan Mous
>
> Currently HBase is built with JDK 7 so JDK8 features cannot be used. We
> decided to use the CompletableFuture for async communication and this can now
> not land. It was voted that JDK8 will be the minimum java version that will
> be supported for 2.0. So now we need to upgrade it.
