We invite you to shape the future of Curam, including product roadmaps, by submitting ideas that matter to you the most. Here's how it works:

Post your ideas

Start by posting ideas and requests to enhance a product or service. Take a look at ideas others have posted and upvote them if they matter to you,

  1. Post an idea

  2. Upvote ideas that matter most to you

  3. Get feedback from the Curam team to refine your idea

Help Curam prioritize your ideas and requests

The Curam team may need your help to refine the ideas so they may ask for more information or feedback. The offering manager team will then decide if they can begin working on your idea. If they can start during the next development cycle, they will put the idea on the priority list. Each team at Merative works on a different schedule, where some ideas can be implemented right away, others may be placed on a different schedule.

Receive notification on the decision

Some ideas can be implemented at Merative, while others may not fit within the development plans for the product. In either case, the team will let you know as soon as possible. In some cases, we may be able to find alternatives for ideas which cannot be implemented in a reasonable time.

Upgrade Java 8 to Java 11 or higher in Curam

Recommended version to run Java in containers is 1.8.0_191, and preferably Java 11 or higher. Currently Curam seems to use a release only a couple of versions higher than 1.8.0_191 (1.8.0_311)

Documentation and folklore all indicate it’s preferable to use Java 11 or higher when working with containers. Look forward to seeing a higher version of Java in use in Curam very soon.

      Hi Jeff,

      We have reviewed your enhancement suggestion.

      Based on the information provided, our understanding of your request is as follows:

      • that the version of JAVA that SPM is developed on is updated from JAVA 8 to a later version that has greater compatibility for Container technology.

      The theme is aligned with our current multi-year strategy for our product, and we have accepted your suggestion as a consideration for a future release. Not all items under consideration will make it into a release. As plans are confirmed, you will be notified when a specific release includes this enhancement.

      Thank you for taking the time to share your ideas with us. We are committed to involving our users in building our product roadmap and appreciate your suggestions.

      Regards,

      Graham McCrindle, SPM Product Management Team
