URL: https://github.com/apache/helix/issues/2779
**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**
We have some consumers which are still running their (open-source) systems
on JRE-8, hence they are not able to run helix libraries compiled with JDK11+.
**Describe the solution you'd like**
We would like to provide a backward compatible support to our consumers
where they also have an option to use JDK-8 compiled helix-core jar, if they
have such a requirement. By default we will generate JDK-11 jars and JDK-8 jars
using a classifier.
```
<major.minor.patch> will use JDK11 (default)
<major.minor.patch> classifier say jdk8 , will use JDK8
```
## For JDK-11 usecase
```
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache</groupId>
<artifactId>helix</artifactId>
<version>1.3.4</version>
</dependency>
```
## For JDK-8 usecase
```
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache</groupId>
<artifactId>helix</artifactId>
<version>1.3.4</version>
<classifier>jdk8</classifier>
</dependency>
```
