Hi Mark, Cass Savy, Robert... I confirm that Cassandra runs on JRE ( or JDK because a JRE is provided with JDK ). Oracle (ex Sun Microsystem) is the best choice to make Cassandra running without issue. (there is some problems with IBM JVM or OpenJDK).
Here's a screenshot of Cassandra 2.1.2 running on my computer (Linux Ubuntu 14.04 x86-64 with JDK 1.6.x). Regards.
