This page provides a table listing support for the third party applications that are required to run PhixFlow at major releases:
- A database server
- An application server
- Java runtime environment
- A web browser (on the client side)
The table below also includes information on any special upgrade instructions that you should be aware of when planning to migrate to a new version. While the upgrade process for PhixFlow itself is fast, please use the table below to determine if you need to plan with your IT department to upgrade any other software.
We are planning not to support the following old database versions in releases after 31st March 2018. Please contact the support desk if you are currently using any of these versions and are not planning to change by then. We'll plan continued support if needed with your input. If you are on one of these versions we recommend that you upgrade to a later version.
