CDP Private cloud support for java 17 and spark 3.3

[#1]

Are there any plans and target dates for CDP Private Cloud to support Java 17 and Spark 3.3?

Hi @MikeCC 

Spark 3.3 is not yet supported in CDP. We have a future plan to release Spark 3.3 in CDP 7.1.8 or later versions.

As per the below support matrix, we are not yet supported Java17.

I hope you have got answers for your question. If yes, please accept as a solution.

With Java 21 as next LTS release probably launching in ~6 month and OpenJDK 11 active support ending in 6 month, I'd like to reraise the question:

When will cloudera support Java 17 for the CDP private cloud base? You have to remember that your customers also need some time to upgrade their clusters and upgrade the applications running on it. So do you really plan to have your support lagging 2 LTS releases behind the official Java LTS releases and let your customers use not actively maintained Java versions?

Hi @Theoo 

It is not easy to upgrade for every immediate release. Internally we need to test it for multiple components. Please check always cloudera docs for latest releases and its supported versions.
