Hello, I'm trying to decide, whether I should use JDK8 or JDK11 to run Jenkins. So far I have been using JDK8. If I look at the documentation, I find: "Installing Jenkins" https://www.jenkins.io/doc/book/installing/ points to "Java Requirements" https://www.jenkins.io/doc/administration/requirements/java/ which says "Java 8 runtime environments, both 32-bit and 64-bit versions are supported" "Since Jenkins 2.164 and 2.164.1 [1], Java 11 runtime environments are supported
So this sounds like "both JDK8 and JDK11 are supported" But the "fine print" below JDK11 sounds different: https://www.jenkins.io/doc/administration/requirements/upgrade-java-guidelines/ So what is the current recommendation: Use JDK8 ? JDK11 ? Give JDK11 a try and report issues ? Is an update planned to make JDK11 the preferred version ? Regards Martin

Is an update planned to make JDK11 the preferred version ? I don't think so. Depends on your Jenkins version. It matters when you use similar and above Jenkins 2.164.

Personally if you are starting from a new Jenkins version then I'd go JDK11 unless you hit some strange edge-case issue where you might need to roll it back to JDK8. Although JDK8 isn't going anywhere in the short term its probably best to keep with the newest LTS version of Java to not make the upgrade someone else's problem down the line 😀 Richard.

Agreed with Richard. Plus we literally have a thread on the dev list that's less than 10 days old, where we discussed bumping the minimum requirement to Java 11. IOW, I'd recommend defaulting to Java 11 unless you've got very compelling reasons to run Java 8. This way, when the requirement gets bumped, at some point (no date yet), this will be a no-event for you :-). (or will be facing a wall if you chose Java 8).
