Yeah, I understand the need to move to 21 as a minimum to take advantage of
its features. Hopefully the wider java ecosystem won't be an issue in the
short term.
I just wanted the discussion to be clear about this being a change to the
Java baseline/minimum for NiFi 2.0.
It's a +1 from me.

My suggestion is rooted in making Java 21 the minimum of the NiFi 2.0
line. It would not work on Java 17. The reason for this is so that we can
leverage the longest duration of a given LTS line while also benefiting
from the language improvements that affords. Maintaining compatibility
To be clear, is the discussion one of making Java 21 the minimum
requirement for NiFi 2.0.0, or rather NiFi 2.x be compatible with Java 21,
while retaining Java 17 as a minimum?
If we moved straight to a Java 21 requirement, will we run into
compatibility issues that delay initial NiFi 2 release?
+1 100%

Yes, please. +1 Exactly what Mark said. Virtual threads have potential to
be extremely impactful to applications like NiFi.

I would definitely be a +1. I think the new virtual thread concept would have
great impact on us.
It would allow us to significantly simplify our scheduling logic, which would
help with code maintainability
but would also make configuration simpler. This is one

Thought it might be worth relighting this thread with Java 21 GA imminent.
Given the timing we should give consideration to having Java 21 as the
basis for nifi 2.x to buy maximum time with LTS alignment. There are also
a couple interesting language features we can likely take advantage of.
