What’s New In The August 2024 Payara Platform Release

News

We’re pleased to announce the latest releases of Payara Platform, addressing key bug fixes and delivering component upgrades for improved performance and security. Thanks to these updates, users of Payara Platform Enterprise and/or Payara Platform Community, can benefit from a more reliable and optimized runtime environment.

Payara Platform Enterprise 6.17.0 & 5.66.0

The Payara Platform Enterprise 6.17.0 & 5.66.0 releases focus on resolving issues related to REST endpoints and domain restarts.

Component upgrades are a significant highlight of these releases:

  • JLine: Upgraded to version 3.26.3 for enhanced console input handling.
  • Nimbus Jose JWT: Upgraded to version 9.40 for improved security and JSON Web Token (JWT) handling.

  • Jakarta Concurrency API: Upgraded to version 3.0.4 for enhanced concurrency capabilities.
