> On the http://wiki.apache.org/cassandra/GettingStarted page the following is mentioned under pre-requisites:
> "Cassandra requires the most stable version of Java 7 or 8 you can deploy, preferably the Oracle/Sun JVM. Cassandra also runs on OpenJDK and the IBM JVM. (It will NOT run on JRockit, which is only compatible with Java 6.)"
> I work for Azul, the Zing and Zulu JVMs vendor, and was surprised not to find them mentioned given the many clients we have who deploy Cassandra. It seems strange that an Open Source project would state such preference to a commercial vendor.
> I would think that a more neutral statement would be suitable to the effect that: "Cassandra requires a Java 7/8 compatible JVM and known to work with the following JVMs (A,B,C etc)."
> It also seems fair to mention the range of JVMs under which releases are officially tested/certified (is there a release certification suite or something similar?).
