[jira] [Created] (FLINK-27704) Java 17 compatibility

Jordan Kaye created FLINK-27704:
-----------------------------------

             Summary: Java 17 compatibility
                 Key: FLINK-27704
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-27704
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Jordan Kaye


We're looking for an update on this issue: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-15736

 

Java 11 is a very old LTS version and is missing vital features from Java 14 and Java 17. A production deployment should support Java 17.

In general, I would expect compatibility for new language versions within 6 months of their release. Being pinned to old versions has significant cascading impact on technical infrastructure.
