Java and tomcat versions

Tue May 03, 2016 10:43 pm

I'm doing a new project in my raspberry pi 2 B and I want to use it as server so I would like to ask for advise in versions:

Java: 7, 8 or 9? 7 is the more 'stable', 8 have lambdas and 9 modularity (which should be an huge advantage but I don't know if it is ready to go)

Tomcat 7, 8, 8.5?

Are remarkable diferences in CPU or memory consumption?

A pair of considerations;

I love developing software and I haven't do anything with java 9 (I've test java 8's lambdas and I love them) but the whole think of trying something new its a positive point when choosing.

The aplication wouldn't be heavy, it will be only an interface to use my thermostat.

I would go with Tomcat 8.5 and Java 9 but I am not sure that java9 is ready to be used....

What do you recommend?
