I currently have to configure spark-1.x to use Java 8 and python 3.x. I noticed that http://spark.apache.org/releases/spark-release-2-0-0.html#removals mentions java 7 is deprecated.
Is the default now Java 8 ? Thanks Andy Deprecations The following features have been deprecated in Spark 2.0, and might be removed in future versions of Spark 2.x: * Fine-grained mode in Apache Mesos * Support for Java 7 * Support for Python 2.6
