System requirements

Hardware

Java

For MFT Server 12.x through 2023.x, Java 8 or higher is supported.
- Note: If you are using Oracle Java and are running on MFT Server version 12.x - 2023.x, we strongly recommend you use at least Java 8 Update 161. If you are not using an earlier patch of Java 8, you need to install the JCE Unlimited Strength Jurisdiction Policy Files.
MFT Server supports JREs from Oracle/Sun, IBM, and OpenJDK.
For Windows, Mac OS 10.x, Solaris, Linux, Linux Z/OS and AIX 5.x/6.x/7.x platforms:
- Typically Java runtime is all that needs to be installed on the system.

Browsers

Current and previous (Current -1) versions of IE, Edge, Firefox, Safari and Chrome.

Database

For production environments or evaluation environments with heavy usage and/or high availability requirements, it is recommended that you use an ANSI compliant relational database such as MySQL, MSSQL, Oracle, or PostgreSQL.

Note: The embedded H2 database that ships with MFT Server is not intended for production environments and is for evaluation purposes only.
JSCAPE does not have specific hardware requirements for the database because it varies with each user's needs. That said, from experience, we recommend the minimum of 4 core CPU, 8 GB of RAM.
