Platform and Database Requirements
ActiveMatrix BPM supports various platforms and databases.
Supported Platforms
There are various combinations of operating system and processor architecture that can be used to host ActiveMatrix BPM.
The Supported Versions specified are the minimum versions of each operating system that are supported by ActiveMatrix BPM:
- Any subsequent service packs/patches/updates/fix packs released for the same major version are also supported.
- Higher major versions must be validated by TIBCO to determine if they are supported by ActiveMatrix BPM. If you wish to use a higher major version of one of these operating systems with ActiveMatrix BPM, contact TIBCO Support to find out if that version is supported. Major versions are defined in this context as:
Supported Databases
There are various database versions that can be used to host the ActiveMatrix BPM, ActiveMatrix Administrator, and (if required) BDS case data store databases.
Database (64 bit) | Supported Versions | Supported Editions |
---|---|---|
Microsoft SQL Server 2017 | 2017 (with any subsequent service packs for this version) | Standard or higher |
Microsoft SQL Server 2016 | 2016 with Service Pack 1 (or any subsequent service packs for this version) | Standard or higher |
Microsoft SQL Server 2014 | 2014 with Service Pack 2 (or any subsequent service packs for this version) | Standard or higher |
Microsoft SQL Server 2012 | 2012 with Service Pack 3 (or any subsequent service packs for this version) | Standard or higher |
Oracle 12c R2 | 12.2.0.1 (with any subsequent 12.2.0.x patch sets) | Standard or higher (with or without RAC enabled) |
Oracle 12c R1 | 12.1.0.2 (with any subsequent 12.1.0.x patch sets) | Standard or higher (with or without RAC enabled) |
DB2 | 11.1 (with any subsequent Fix Packs for this version) | Workgroup or higher |
DB2 | 10.5 (with Fix Pack 3 or later for this version) | Workgroup or higher |
The Supported Versions specified are the minimum versions of each database that are supported by ActiveMatrix BPM:
- Any subsequent service packs/patches/updates/fix packs released for the same major version are also supported.
- Higher major versions must be validated by TIBCO to determine if they are supported by ActiveMatrix BPM. (Major versions are defined in this context as: Microsoft SQL Server 2016 2014 or 2012, Oracle 12c R1 or R2, DB2 11.1 or 10.5.) If you wish to use a higher major version of one of these databases with ActiveMatrix BPM, contact TIBCO Support to find out if that version is supported.
Some database configuration is required before installing ActiveMatrix BPM, depending on the database used and the installation scenario, as explained later.
Database and Platform Compatibility
The supported databases that can be used to host the ActiveMatrix BPM, ActiveMatrix Administrator, and (if required) BDS case data store databases vary depending on the supported platforms on which ActiveMatrix BPM can run.

Each supported database is listed as either "Supported" or "Not tested" against each supported platform. These terms have the following specific meanings:
- Supported - When ActiveMatrix BPM is hosted on this platform, this database can be used to host the ActiveMatrix BPM, ActiveMatrix Administrator and (if required) BDS case data store databases. In this case, either:
- Not tested - When ActiveMatrix BPM is hosted on this platform, TIBCO has not validated use of this database to host the ActiveMatrix BPM, ActiveMatrix Administrator, and (if required) BDS case data store databases. Please contact TIBCO Support first if you want to use ActiveMatrix BPM with this platform/database combination.
