Platform Support
The platforms listed on this page are currently certified for use with commercial Terracotta product editions. As a 100% Java solution, Terracotta should run without issues on Java platforms for which it is not certified. If you have any questions about a certified or non-certified platform, contact us in one of the following ways:
- Send email to info@terracotta.org
- Post a question on our community forums
Terracotta is comprised of two different components: the client that integrates with your application, and the server (the server array) that typically runs on a set of separate machines in production.
The client is designed to run on many platform/JDK/container combinations. The server runs directly as a Java process (without a container).
Client JDKs
For standard usage (also referred as Express integration) - via standard application libraries - with Ehcache, Quartz and Web Sessions, the following JDK's are supported:
JDK Version |
|---|
Sun Hotspot 1.5.0_22 |
Sun Hotspot 1.6.0_30 |
Oracle BEA JRockit 1.6.0_26-b03 R28 |
IBM JDK 1.5 |
IBM JDK 1.6 |
Custom/DSO Usage
- In addition to the ability to integrate Terracotta via standard application libraries (Ehcache, Quartz and Web Sessions), Terracotta also supports a Custom/DSO (Distributed Shared Objects) integration mode. Custom/DSO provides support for additional advanced use cases via lower level JVM-level data type clustering. It is typically only used for direct JVM-level POJO clustering (without using Ehcache), or uses cases that combine Ehcache with explicit DSO clustering of other data types in a single application, or when using Ehcache in non-serialized identity mode.
- For more information on integration and installation modes, see our
- Custom/DSO usage is only supported with the Sun Hotspot JDK - as it relies on a JDK specific boot-jar for byte-code manipulation. Additionally, Websphere is not support with Custom/DSO usage.
