Oracle Java Licensing Changes

JaredDeWitt — Mon, 06 Jan 2020 20:07:26 GMT

With the recent change to Oracle's java licensing, we're wondering how that affects SAS. I've noticed in some documentation that SAS has their own private version of java based on java 9.

Question 1: Who is running Oracle JRE in their environment?

Question 2: Are you planning on swapping that out with SAS private version of Java?

Question 3: Where can I download the SAS version of java?

Thanks!

@JaredDeWitt ,

Starting from 2018 SAS is using Azul JRE/JDK instead of Oracle JRE/JDK.

Usage Note 56203: Downloading the SAS® Private Java Runtime Environment version 7 or version 8 update for SAS® 9.3 and SAS® 9.4
