## Supported Java Versions
123123

124124
Java 7 or above is required for using this client.

126+
Google's Java client libraries,
127+
[Google Cloud Client Libraries][cloudlibs]
128+
and
129+
[Google Cloud API Libraries][apilibs],
130+
follow the
131+
[Oracle Java SE support roadmap][oracle]
132+
(see the Oracle Java SE Product Releases section).
133+
134+
### For new development
135+
136+
In general, new feature development occurs with support for the lowest Java
137+
LTS version covered by Oracle's Premier Support (which typically lasts 5 years
138+
from initial General Availability). If the minimum required JVM for a given
139+
library is changed, it is accompanied by a [semver][semver] major release.
140+
141+
Java 11 and (in September 2021) Java 17 are the best choices for new
142+
development.
143+
144+
### Keeping production systems current
145+
146+
Google tests its client libraries with all current LTS versions covered by
147+
Oracle's Extended Support (which typically lasts 8 years from initial
148+
General Availability).
149+
150+
#### Legacy support
151+
152+
Google's client libraries support legacy versions of Java runtimes with long
153+
term stable libraries that don't receive feature updates on a best efforts basis
154+
as it may not be possible to backport all patches.
155+
156+
Google provides updates on a best efforts basis to apps that continue to use
157+
Java 7, though apps might need to upgrade to current versions of the library
158+
that supports their JVM.
159+
160+
#### Where to find specific information
161+
162+
The latest versions and the supported Java versions are identified on
163+
the individual GitHub repository `github.com/GoogleAPIs/java-SERVICENAME`
164+
and on [google-cloud-java][g-c-j].
