Jar version Compatibility Matrix among Java Technologies?

Question

Upgrading from Java 1.7 to Java 1.8.

Is there any documentation for Jar version Compatibility Matrix among Java Technologies(like Java, J2EE, Spring Core, Spring JDBC, Spring Security, CXF SOAP, CXF REst, Maven, Maven Clean Plugin, Maven Compiler Plugin, Log4j, Jackson Parser and etc..)
