Oracle Java license change from 2019 impact?

[#1]

Hi,

I just want to understand what are the implications on SAP applications running on Java? We have SAP PO 7.4 which is on Java stack, we use SAP Cloud platform extensions using Java, SAP Native HANA Development on Java.

I know there are other versions of Java and not just Oracle, but wanted to understand the to-be scenario post Jan 2019.

Hi Vishnu,

Please have a look at SAP note 2700275 - Java SE Technologies in SAP Products.

Best regards,

Antal

Hello Antal,

Based on this note, we will Java provided by SAP for our application. Does it mean we can use the same compiler for our local IDE to be on the same version of Java or SAP licence for Java is not applicable for this case?

Thank you,

Leonid

May I use your topic to ask how to proceed in AS Java? We have installed the SapMachine as suggested in the SAP note 2700275 - Java SE Technologies in SAP Products, but we're unable to open the XMII Workbench.

Do you know how we should proceed?

Thanks!

Maria

Hi Leonid,

For client side the SapMachine is available instead of Oracle JDK:

https://github.com/SAP/SapMachine

https://sap.github.io/SapMachine/

The SAPJVM is still intended for Java servers, not for clients.

I'm not sure if it answers your question.

Best regards,

Antal
