Update the requirement to "Java 11, 17, 21, or 25" and note the default image tag is Java 25 alongside the published -java11/-java17/-java21 variants. Java 11 remains the compile target/minimum. --- docs/en/setup/backend/backend-setup.md | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/docs/en/setup/backend/backend-setup.md b/docs/en/setup/backend/backend-setup.md index 0460c94040..288ca5e67d 100755 --- a/docs/en/setup/backend/backend-setup.md +++ b/docs/en/setup/backend/backend-setup.md @@ -14,7 +14,7 @@ SkyWalking's backend distribution package consists of the following parts: ## Requirements and default settings -Requirement: **Java 11/17/21**. +Requirement: **Java 11, 17, 21, or 25**. The OAP is compiled for Java 11 (the minimum runtime), so the binary distribution runs on any of these. Official Docker images publish `-java11` / `-java17` / `-java21` tag variants; the default (unsuffixed) image tag is built on Java 25 (`eclipse-temurin:25-jre`). You should set up the database ready before starting the backend. We recommend to use BanyanDB. If you want to use other databases, please read the [storage document](backend-storage.md).
