Answer 1

You need JDK 7 or JDK 8 to build it. Also take a look to the OS Requirements.

As you can read in the Apache Kudu Prerequisites and Requirements:

Operating System Requirements

Linux:

RHEL 6, RHEL 7, CentOS 6, CentOS 7, Ubuntu 14.04 (Trusty), Ubuntu 16.04 (Xenial), Debian 8 (Jessie), or SLES 12.

A kernel and filesystem that support hole punching. Hole punching is the use of the fallocate(2) system call with the FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE option set. See troubleshooting hole punching for more information.

macOS:

OS X 10.10 Yosemite, OS X 10.11 El Capitan, macOS Sierra, or macOS High Sierra.

Prebuilt macOS packages are not provided.

Windows:

Microsoft Windows is unsupported.

Java:

JDK 7 or JDK 8 is required to build Kudu, but a JRE is not required at runtime except for tests.
