Hi, +1 here.
PIG & Hive are JDK7 targetVersions. https://github.com/apache/pig/blob/trunk/build.xml#L64 https://github.com/apache/hive/blob/master/pom.xml#L616 Flink & Spark have JDK8 code in them via activation. >From earlier mails, I remember seeing only JDK7 bugs reported for Tez so far. Datameer also recommends JDK 1.7, IBM Big Insights uses JDK 1.7. Hadapt had /opt/teradata/jvm64/jdk7. HDInsight uses JDK7 Zulu (AFAIK, there¹s also a 1.8 Zulu available on A1). So I feel like we¹re well past the chasm here.
