Installation Prerequisites

Memory

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

Disk

• ~ 180 MB, excluding space allocated for log files and databases.

Operating Systems / Databases

• All WSO2 Carbon-based products are Java applications that can be run on any platform that is JDK 1.6.*/1.7.* or OpenJDK compliant.  
• All WSO2 Carbon-based products are generally compatible with most common DBMSs.
  
• For environments that WSO2 products are tested with, see Compatibility of WSO2 Products.
  

Oracle Java SE Development Kit (JDK)*

• To launch the product as each product is a Java application.

• To build the product from the source distribution (both JDK and Apache Maven are required).
• To run Apache Ant.

1.6.24 or later / 1.7.*

• 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.
• If you want to build the product from the source distribution, you must use JDK 1.6 instead of JDK 1.7.

Apache ActiveMQ
JMS Provider*

• To enable the product's JMS transport and try out JMS samples. The ActiveMQ client libraries must be installed in the product's classpath before you can enable the JMS transport.

5.5.0 or later

If you use any other JMS provider (e.g. Apache Qpid), install any necessary libraries and/or components.

Apache Ant

• To compile and run the product samples.

1.7.0 or later

• To check out the code to build the product from the source distribution. If you are installing by downloading and extracting the binary distribution instead of building from the source code, you do not need to install SVN.

• Linux - http://subversion.apache.org/packages.html
• Windows - http://tortoisesvn.net/downloads.html

Apache Maven

• To build the product from the source distribution (both JDK and Apache Maven are required). If you are installing by downloading and extracting the binary distribution instead of building from the source code, you do not need to install Maven.
