Infogix roadmap for IBM Liberty support

The timelines below may change as research and development for IBM Liberty continues.

In Infogix version 9.5, slated for early 2022 release, the following application servers are slated for support:

• IBM WebSphere 8.5.5 and 9.0
• IBM Liberty
• Wildfly

In Infogix version 9.6, slated for early 2023 release, the following application servers are slated for support:

• IBM WebSphere 9.0
• IBM Liberty
• Wildfly

Due to upgraded libraries, Infogix version 9.6 will not work with WebSphere 8.5.5.

Open Liberty versus WebSphere Liberty

IBM has two variants of Liberty: Open Liberty and WebSphere Liberty. Open Liberty is open-source while WebSphere Liberty is licensable and has closed-source additions to the Open Liberty platform.

Infogix is researching whether our products are able to support Open Liberty. It is currently unknown whether both Open Liberty and WebSphere Liberty will be supported or if solely WebSphere Liberty will be supported. This article will be updated as research progresses and specific variants of IBM Liberty are determined.
