The JasperSoft Platform Support Guide is the best place to look to decide what version to install.

Add the new JAVA_HOME=C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-1.8. Then add to the existing PATH list of items %JAVA_HOME%\bin. This will be handy for using Java tools from the command line specifically when using the JasperServer buildomatic tools.
