Offline Mediation Controller Cloud Native Deployment Software Compatibility

Caution:

It is the responsibility of the system administrator to ensure that all installed software dependencies are kept up to date wherever possible. Oracle supports versions of the software where the software vendor declares backward compatibility to the version certified with Offline Mediation Controller and where the upgrade is a minor version increment (that is, A.B.C to A.B.D).

It is particularly important for system administrators to adopt this policy for software dependencies for which upgrades are generally related to security rather than focused on functionality.

The Offline Mediation Controller cloud native images were validated with the software listed in Table 3-1.
