+## Java Version Compatibility
+
+Based on comprehensive testing with all available Java versions:
+
+**Tested Compatibility Matrix**:
+| Module | Java 8 | Java 11 | Java 17 | Java 21 | Best Version |
+|--------|---------|---------|---------|---------|--------------|
+| **transponder-core** | ⚠️ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | Java 11+ |
+| **transponder-orientdb** | ⚠️ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | Java 11+ |
+| **transponder-arcadedb** | ❌ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | Java 11+ |
+| **transponder-neo4j** | ⚠️ | ✅ | ✅ | ❌ | Java 11-17 |
+| **transponder-janusgraph** | ⚠️ | ✅ | ❌ | ❌ | Java 11 only |
+| **transponder-mongodb** | ⚠️ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | Java 11+ |
+
+**Key Findings**:
+- ⚠️ Java 8 requires Maven compiler configuration changes (remove `--release` flag)
+- ❌ Neo4j 4.4.38 fails with Java 21 due to `UnsupportedOperationException` 
+- ❌ JanusGraph 1.1.0 requires Java 11 compiler configuration (fails on 17+)
+- ✅ OrientDB 3.2.36 works excellently with Java 17+ (contrary to documentation)
+- ✅ Java 11 is the universal compatibility sweet spot
+
+**Recommended Development Setup**:
+- Use **Java 11** for development - all modules tested and working
+- Use Java 17+ for projects not requiring Neo4j or JanusGraph
+- Set `JAVA_HOME` appropriately when testing specific modules
+
 ## Development Notes
 
-- Java 8 target (maven.compiler.source/target = 1.8)
+- Default Java target: Java 8 (maven.compiler.source/target = 1.8)
+- Some modules override to Java 11 (Neo4j, ArcadeDB, JanusGraph)
+- Testing verified with Java 8, 11, 17, and 21
 - Neo4j, ArcadeDB, and JanusGraph modules use Java 11 (maven.compiler.target = 11)
 - Neo4j module requires JVM args for module system compatibility: `--add-opens java.base/java.nio=ALL-UNNAMED --add-opens java.base/sun.nio.ch=ALL-UNNAMED --add-opens java.base/java.lang=ALL-UNNAMED`
 - JanusGraph module uses same JVM args as Neo4j for TinkerPop compatibility

 ## Java Version Requirements
 
-**Important**: Different Transponder modules have specific Java version requirements:
-
-- **transponder-core**: Java 8+
-- **transponder-orientdb**: Java 8+ 
-- **transponder-arcadedb**: Java 11+
-- **transponder-neo4j**: **Java 11 only** (Neo4j 4.4.38 has strict Java 11 compatibility)
-- **transponder-janusgraph**: Java 11+ (TinkerPop 3.7.3 and distributed backend requirements)
-- **transponder-mongodb**: Java 8+
-
-### Neo4j Java 11 Compatibility
-
-The Neo4j module requires Java 11 due to ByteBuffer compatibility issues in Neo4j 4.4.38. Running on Java 21 will result in `UnsupportedOperationException` errors. To work with the Neo4j module:
-
-1. Ensure Java 11 is installed on your system
-2. Set `JAVA_HOME` to Java 11 when building/testing the Neo4j module:
-   ```bash
-   export JAVA_HOME=/path/to/java11
-   mvn test -pl transponder-neo4j
-   ```
+**Important**: Different Transponder modules have specific Java version requirements based on their underlying database dependencies:
+
+- **transponder-core**: Java 8+ (tested up to Java 21)
+- **transponder-orientdb**: Java 8+ (OrientDB 3.2.36 works with Java 8-21)
+- **transponder-arcadedb**: Java 11+ (ArcadeDB 23.12.1 requirement, works with Java 17+)
+- **transponder-neo4j**: Java 8-17 (Neo4j 4.4.38 fails with Java 21)
+- **transponder-janusgraph**: Java 8-11 (JanusGraph 1.1.0 limitation - requires explicit Java 11 compiler config)
+- **transponder-mongodb**: Java 8+ (MongoDB Java Driver 5.2.1 works with all Java versions)
+
+### Tested Java Version Compatibility Matrix
+
+| Module | Java 8 | Java 11 | Java 17 | Java 21 | Notes |
+|--------|---------|---------|---------|---------|-------|
+| **transponder-core** | ⚠️* | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | *Requires Maven compiler config changes for Java 8 |
+| **transponder-orientdb** | ⚠️* | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | *Requires Maven compiler config changes for Java 8 |
+| **transponder-arcadedb** | ❌ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | Minimum Java 11 required |
+| **transponder-neo4j** | ⚠️* | ✅ | ✅ | ❌ | *Requires Maven compiler config changes for Java 8; **Fails on Java 21** |
+| **transponder-janusgraph** | ⚠️* | ✅ | ❌ | ❌ | *Requires Maven compiler config changes for Java 8; Uses Java 11 compiler config |
+| **transponder-mongodb** | ⚠️* | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | *Requires Maven compiler config changes for Java 8 |
+
+### Recommended Java Versions by Use Case
+
+#### For Maximum Compatibility
+Use **Java 11** - all modules work perfectly with Java 11.
+
+#### For Latest Java Features  
+Use **Java 17** with modules: core, orientdb, arcadedb, mongodb (excludes neo4j and janusgraph).
+
+#### Production Environments
+- **Java 11**: Safest choice, all modules tested and working
+- **Java 17**: Good choice if not using Neo4j or JanusGraph  
+- **Java 21**: Limited to core, orientdb, arcadedb, mongodb modules only
