The entirety of Apache ecosystem pretty much mandates using Java or you are being left out with no or at best second-citizen experience. It's not a fault of every other language, but of that particular ecosystem itself. There are exceptions in the form of well-written community-maintained libraries, but these exist for minority of Apache projects and vary a lot between languages. Luckily, there are often (but not always) plenty of alternatives to whatever it is that you seek from Apache.
