+# Java 17 Upgrade
+
+- Waltz has been upgraded to run on Java 17, moving from Java 8.
+- Developer Actions
+  - Please ensure your local development environment is configured to use JDK 17.
+  - Update your IDE settings (e.g., IntelliJ, Eclipse) to point to the JDK 17 installation.
+
+## Framework Upgrade
+- The web framework, Spark Java, has been upgraded from version 2.7.1 to 2.9.4.
+- Developer Impact
+  - There are no immediate code changes required for developers. The upgrade is backward compatible with our existing usage.
+  - This change helps keep Waltz current and secure by using a more recent version of its core web framework.
+
+## Key Changes 
+- See [pom.xml](https://github.com/finos/waltz/pull/7400/changes#diff-9c5fb3d1b7e3b0f54bc5c4182965c4fe1f9023d449017cece3005d3f90e8e4d8) for a full list of Java dependencies against Java & Sparx upgrade.
