Regarding this thing, in fact, many people who work on technology or need to configure systems will be confused. They don’t know what it is, and why it doesn’t seem important? I suddenly heard it, "" and "" and ", and a bunch of English words are spelled together, and my head is too big! Simply put, it is actually a form or a detailed list? No, right, it is much more complicated than the list. It is specially used to list which hardware and software components, including the operating system, database, and application. They can work together with peace of mind, no fighting, and no combination of various strange problems! This is a life-saving straw for many people who want to ensure that their system can run smoothly after installation or upgrade, and do not waste money and trouble. Well, when it comes to the combination of these hardware and software, we provide global procurement services for weak current intelligent products! Their family seems to have a lot of supplies in this regard and they have a wide range of choices.

Next, let’s talk about why there must be such a “”? Don't worry, wait until I tell you slowly. What I fear most is that I only find that the new operating system is installed and I find that the working software I often use cannot be opened, right? The data cannot be imported or out! Also, if the server hardware has just been bought with a new version, the old database management system does not support it and cannot be installed, how can it be crashing? This will mark these potential "minefields" in advance, telling you which version and which version are "feeling affection" and can get along well; which one is "having a grudge" with which one is "having a grudge" and will definitely lead to problems as soon as you meet them.

What is the main thing to make up this "

1. List of core components : The most important parts in your system, such as the operating system, you have to write clearly which year and month version it is, or how many versions of Linux, and the specific distribution number of Red Hat; in addition to the operating system, there are also database management systems, such as 12c and MySQL 8.0, all of which must be listed; by the way, there are application servers, and JBoss, and they must not be missing.

2. Support version logo : This item is the most important! Generally, the version numbers of other components that can be matched and verified by official or authoritative tests will be clearly listed. Sometimes, you will also tick or write "√" to indicate perfect support, write "X" or cross to indicate no support, and occasionally there will be a small exclamation mark "!" The note says limited support, which is a situation where some functions may not be used, but they can basically run; or if there are configuration requirements that need to be paid attention to before you can use them.

3. What about the special configuration requirements ? : The support for the version is not comprehensive enough. When some components are matched, you may have to change the system environment parameters? For example, you have to increase the memory a little, or install a patch package, or even modify the small details of some configuration files. These must be explained clearly in this way, otherwise it will not work if they match the version, then it will be useless.

4. Incompatible project warning ! : It is to write out the component versions that you have clearly known and must not be put together, mark them in red or add a big exclamation mark, which is very eye-catching and can be seen at a glance, so that you can take a detour. Don't touch this combination, so as not to install or system crash. The most heartbreaking thing is the tragic loss of data

5. What about the release and update dates ? Because software and hardware products are constantly being updated and replaced, the compatibility situation may change as soon as the new version comes out. So there must be a date for the final check and update, otherwise, if you take a few years ago to guide the current configuration, it will definitely make a mistake! It's important to make sure it's looking at the latest information!

Frequently Asked Questions and Answers about Using " "

Q; Will there be no mistakes if I directly refer to the latest compatibility?

Answer: This is the case in theory, but it is complicated in reality! So many factors in the system environment may affect it. For example, if you have a third-party gadget or old driver on your computer, they are not listed in it and may interfere with the running of the main component! So it is best to spend more time to set up a small environment to test before formal environment deployment, so that it is the safest

Q&A 2; Where to find accurate information

Answer: Usually, the developers of applications or hardware devices, that is, the producers of production and production, will provide this document in the special 'technical support' section or 'download' center of their official website. It is usually a PDF file, and some may be interactive web pages that can easily search and filter. Where to go directly to find the corresponding product model and large version number. It is definitely no problem. It is much more reliable than the third-party list information you search in other messy places! Also, if some industry-related forums are particularly good, some people will share and organize them, but they can only refer to it and cannot be used as a basis.

Anyway, I personally think that if you take some patience and time to study the corresponding " , please refer to it carefully before moving your system and making big changes. Even if you find it troublesome, you can save yourself a lot of unfair time and energy that you may spend in the future to eliminate compatibility issues! It is like a detailed map, telling you where the road is easy to go, where there are pitfalls, and you can't step on it. If you feel it's troublesome to find compatible hardware and software products, you can also consider professional procurement services! Save time and effort.
