Environment compatibility

  • WSO2 Enterprise Integrator is also compatible with IBM JDK 1.8.*. For more information on the IBM-specific configurations that you need to do when starting different profiles of WSO2 EI, see Running the Product

    All WSO2 Carbon-based products are Java applications that can be run on any platform that is Oracle JDK 1.8.* compliant.

    Also, for more information on JDKs that WSO2 products are tested with, see Tested JDKs.

  • All WSO2 Carbon-based products are generally compatible with most common DBMSs. The embedded H2 database is suitable for development, testing, and some production environments. For most enterprise production environments, however, we recommend you use an industry-standard RDBMS such as Oracle, PostgreSQL, MySQL, MS SQL, etc. For more information, see Changing the Default Databases. Additionally, we do not recommend the H2 database as a user store.
  • It is not recommended to use Apache DS in a production environment due to scalability issues. Instead, use an LDAP like OpenLDAP for user management.
  • For environments that WSO2 products are tested with, see Compatibility of WSO2 Products.

Some updates of JDK 1.8 (for example, JDK1.8.0_

151 due to

151) are affected by known issue

. This

 related to GZIP decoding. Until this issue is fixed

in JDK 1.8.0_162-ea. However, use JDK 1.8.0_144 until the latter mentioned version is released

, we recommend one of the following approaches:

  • To find out if this version of the product has issues running on your OS due to the JDK version, see Known Incompatibilities.
  • Alternatively, you can disable GZIP decoding for your product by following the steps given below. This will ensure that your product is not affected by the known issue.
    1. Open the catalina-server.xml file in each profile of WSO2 EI. Listed below are the folders that store this file for each profile:
      • ESB profile: <EI_HOME>/conf/tomcat/ directory.
      • BPS/MB, and Analytics profiles: <EI_HOME>/wso2/<PROFILE_NAME>/conf/tomcat/ directory (where <PROFILE_NAME> is the name of the profile).
    2. Set the compression parameter (under each of the connector configurations) to false as shown below:

      Code Block
      compression="off"
    3. Restart the server.
