Operating Systems/Databases/User Stores

  • All WSO2 Carbon-based products are Java applications that can be run on any platform that is Oracle JDK 7/8 compliant. Also, we  do not recommend OpenJDK as we do not support it or test our products with it.
  • All WSO2 Carbon-based products are generally compatible with most common DBMSs. The embedded H2 database is suitable for development , and testing, and some production environments.
