 ## Prerequisites
 
 To run this prebuilt project, you will need:
 
 - [Couchbase Capella](https://www.couchbase.com/products/capella/) cluster with [travel-sample](https://docs.couchbase.com/java-sdk/current/ref/travel-app-data-model.html) bucket loaded.
   - To run this tutorial using a self-managed Couchbase cluster, please refer to the [appendix](#running-self-managed-couchbase-cluster).
-- [Java](https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/javase-jdk11-downloads.html) 11 or higher installed
-  - Ensure that the Java version is compatible with the Couchbase SDK.

 - Loading Travel Sample Bucket
   If travel-sample is not loaded in your Capella cluster, you can load it by following the instructions for your Capella Cluster:
