Posted by on 18 July 2013 01:00 PM Overview - Java SE 7 This Release Note covers all point releases for the Java SE 7 branch that are offered by eApps. Upgrade instructions are included. Java SE 7 is a major release of the Java Platform, Standard Edition. This release has introduced new functionality and significant changes to the existing Java platform. If you are upgrading from any prior version of Java to Java SE 7, there is a HIGH RISK of data loss and downtime if you do not carefully test your existing application with this new version. EApps recommends, as a best practice, to maintain a staging server where you can test software upgrades before moving them into production. This approach will allow you to minimize the risk of data loss and downtime of your production service when performing software upgrades.
If necessary, you can rebuild your staging Virtual Server on demand so that you have a fresh installation to test on. If you need more information about setting up a staging Virtual Server, please contact. IMPORTANT: Java SE 7 has an extensive list of new features and changes. Upgrading to this version may significantly impact the operation of your applications.
