 Spark runs on both Windows and UNIX-like systems (e.g. Linux, Mac OS), and it should run on any platform that runs a supported version of Java. This should include JVMs on x86_64 and ARM64. It's easy to run locally on one machine --- all you need is to have `java` installed on your system `PATH`, or the `JAVA_HOME` environment variable pointing to a Java installation.
 
-Spark runs on Java 8/11/17, Scala 2.13, Python 3.8+, and R 3.5+.
-Java 8 prior to version 8u371 support is deprecated as of Spark 3.5.0.
+Spark runs on Java 17, Scala 2.13, Python 3.8+, and R 3.5+.
 When using the Scala API, it is necessary for applications to use the same version of Scala that Spark was compiled for.
 For example, when using Scala 2.13, use Spark compiled for 2.13, and compile code/applications for Scala 2.13 as well.
 
-For Java 11, setting `-Dio.netty.tryReflectionSetAccessible=true` is required for the Apache Arrow library. This prevents the `java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException: sun.misc.Unsafe or java.nio.DirectByteBuffer.(long, int) not available` error when Apache Arrow uses Netty internally.
