All,
Atlas 1.0.0 (from master branch) will be replacing use of Titan with JanusGraph, as Titan is not being actively maintained/enhanced, while JanusGraph is. Also, this branch will be using newer version of Hadoop (3.0) and HBase (2.0). All these updates require Java 8 and won’t work in earlier version of Java. And recent change to use newer version of Jetty (ATLAS-2089) also requires use of Java 8. Given above, Apache Atlas (from master branch) would require Java 8 from now on. Apache Atlas from branch-0.8 will continue to use Java 7, as there is no plan currently to move to JanusGraph/Hadoop-3/.. in this branch. Madhan
