Currently IBM Sterling is officially only supported on Java 1.8. There are improvements made on JDK since 1.8 especially around native webservice call. We would like IBM to certify java 11 and above for Sterling OMS.

How will this idea be used?
This idea would be very useful for security patching and using new features introduced in latest JDK versions. We have so many customers who uses microservices and are not able to use the latest java features and functionality since they are not supported on JDK 1.8. |
