Update Oracle JRE / JDK / Apache Tomcat for Pega server

Hi Team,

We would like to upgrade tomcat version to 11.0.X to mitigate an internal security audit finding.

Our current Pega version is Pega 8.8.5, platform support guide talks about Tomcat 9.X but not about higher versions of tomcat.

Can you please suggest the recommended JDK and JRE for tomcat 11.0.X if tomcat 11.0.x is recommended for Pega 8.8.5. Also if there is any particular restriction we have for JDBC drivers.

 

Thanks

Anurag

@AnuragR5374  Checking the Platform Support Guide for Pega 8.8, I found the following app server support:

Apache Tomcat 9.x (using Java 8, 11, or 17)

We recently upgraded to tomcat 9.0.109 and openjdk version 17.0.16 internally, staying current for security. Have not heard of anybody using tomcat 11
