Range of functions
The Open Liberty addresses three major standards or frameworks. A list of the individual elements can be found in the respective article on the standard or framework; a redundant representation is deliberately avoided here.
- Java-EE or Jakarta-EE - A certification according to Jakarta-EE 8 in full and web profiles is available.
- MicroProfile - Version 3.0 of the standard is supported.
- Spring Boot - Version 2.0 of the framework can be used.
All properties of the Open Liberty are individually documented as features including dependencies. The server is based on the OSGi framework. Open Liberty 19.0.0.x currently runs on Java SE 11, but does not support the Java Platform Module System (JPMS).
