Prior to installing any WSO2 Carbon based product, it is necessary to have the appropriate prerequisite software installed on your system. Verify that the computer has the supported operating system and development platforms before starting the installation.

System requirements

Memory

  • ~ 2 GB minimum
  • ~ 512 MB heap size. This is generally sufficient to process typical JMS messages but the requirements vary with larger message sizes and the number of messages processed concurrently.

Disk

  • Disk space (for the database being used) will vary according to your requirements as messages are stored in the database.

Environment compatibility

Operating Systems / Databases

  • All WSO2 Carbon-based products are Java applications that can be run on any platform that is Oracle/IBM JDK 7/8 compliant. Also, we do not recommend or support OpenJDK. See the section on compatibility of WSO2 products for more information. 

    If you are using IBM JDK, the default configurations in the product has to be changed as follows:

      • Open the Owasp.CsrfGuard.Carbon.properties file (stored in the <MB_HOME>/repository/conf/security directory) and change the org.owasp.csrfguard.PRNG.Provider property to IBMJCE as shown below.

        org.owasp.csrfguard.PRNG.Provider=IBMJCE

      • Open the broker.xml file (stored in the <MB_HOME>/repository/conf directory) and set the <certType> property to IbmX509 as shown below.

        <certType>IbmX509</certType>
  • All WSO2 Carbon-based 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.
  • For environments that WSO2 products are tested with, see Compatibility of WSO2 Products.
  • If you have difficulty in setting up any WSO2 product in a specific platform or database, please contact us.
