By If you are using the product installer to install the product, by default, WSO2 EI is installed with OpenJDK, which allows you to run the product as soon as it is installed.
Tip
To use a different JDK, point the JAVA_HOME environment variable to the new JDK. Make sure your JDK version is compatible with the WSO2 product.
If you are using the product's binary distribution to install the product (instead of the product installer), install JDK. Make sure your JDK version is compatible with the WSO2 product.
AllWSO2 products are generally compatible with most common DBMSs. The embedded H2 database is suitable for development, testing, and some production environments. For most enterprise production environments, however, we recommend you use an industry-standard RDBMS such as Oracle, PostgreSQL, MySQL, MS SQL, etc. For more information, see Working with Databases in the Administration Guide. Also, we do not recommend the H2 database as a user store.
It is not recommended to use Apache DS in a production environment due to scalability issues. Instead, use an LDAP like OpenLDAP for user management.
