Notes:
  • You should install a version later than the minimum supported version. Using the suggested version gives you some time to offset the Java upgrades from the Deploy server upgrades. For example, Deploy 8.1.x supports Java versions 11, 17, and 21. So, when you install Java 17, you are not required to update the Java for the next 2 long-term support (LTS) releases of Deploy.
  • SQL Server Compatibility Level 120 is not supported.
  • A package from a dedicated vendor or Linux distribution is required, and it must be accompanied by an active support contract. Under this condition, any OpenJDK distribution is supported.
