Environment compatibility
Operating Systems / Databases | - All WSO2 Carbon-based products are Java applications that can be run on any platform that is Oracle JDK 1.6.*/1.7.* or OpenJDK compliant. JDK 1.8 is not supported yet

. Also, we do not recommend or support OpenJDK It is not recommended to run WSO2 BAM on Windows since Hadoop is not optimized for Windows. All WSO2 products are generally compatible with most common DBMSs. For more information, see Working with Databases. - It is not recommended to use Apache DS in a production environment due to issues with scalability. Instead, it is recommended to use an LDAP like OpenLDAP for user management.

Required applications
The following applications are required for running the Business Activity Monitor and its samples, or for building from the source code. Mandatory installs are marked with *.
Application | Purpose | Version | Download Links |
|---|
Oracle Java SE Development Kit (JDK)* | | 1.6.*/1.7.* | Info |
|---|
- If you are using JDK 1.6, you might need to replace the Java Cryptography Extension (JCE) policy files in your JDK with the Java Cryptography Extension (JCE) Unlimited Strength Jurisdiction Policy files. This will avoid "illegal key size" errors when you try to invoke a secured Web service.
- To build the product from the source distribution, you must use JDK 1.6 instead of JDK 1.7.
- Oracle and IBM JRE 1.7 are supported when running (not building) WSO2 products.
