New features in Talend Remote Engine R2023-10
Talend Remote Engine v2.13 is generally available, providing improved security of Java 17 and alleviating concerns about Java's end-of-support for older versions.
- Java 17 requirement: as announced previously, Java 17 is a mandatory requirement for the startup of Talend Remote Engine v2.13.
- When it comes to running Jobs or Microservices, you retain the flexibility to
either use the default Java 17 version or choose older Java versions.
- When using the default Java 17 version to run Jobs or Microservices,
build them with the add-opens option to ensure
compatibility with Java 17. This option opens the necessary packages for
Java 17 compatibility, making your Jobs or Microservices directly
runnable on Talend Remote Engine v2.13.
For further information about how to use this add-opens option and its limitation, see Setting up Java in Talend Studio.
- If you have existing Jobs or Microservices already built with older Java versions, such as Java 8 or 11, and are not ready to rebuild them with the add-opens option, you have the flexibility to set up JVM instances of the Java 8 or 11 version and configure Talend Remote Engine v2.13 to use those instances for specific executions. This way, you do not need to rebuild those Jobs or Microservices. For further information about how to use a specific Java version to run some of your artifacts, see Specifying a Java version to run Jobs or Microservices.
- When using the default Java 17 version to run Jobs or Microservices,
build them with the add-opens option to ensure
compatibility with Java 17. This option opens the necessary packages for
Java 17 compatibility, making your Jobs or Microservices directly
runnable on Talend Remote Engine v2.13.
If you are using Talend Runtime alongside Talend Remote Engine, see this support statement page for the compatibility details between Talend Runtime and Talend Remote Engine v2.13.
Talend Remote Engine v2.12 will continue to be supported for 12 months until R2024-10, with its end of life set for 18 months later in R2025-04. This phased approach allows you to transition to Java 17 at your own pace without undue pressure.
