[https://www.elastic.co/support/matrix#matrix\_jvm](https://www.elastic.co/support/matrix#matrix_jvm) doesn't have Kibana but shouldn't it be there? Doesn't it use Java?

Which versions of Java are compatible with latest version of Kibana?

Kibana does not run on Java, hence why it's not in the JVM matrix. Kibana is Node.js based.
