Summary:

Regarding following points from August(25.08) update

CLOUD EPM PLATFORM
Deprecation of Java 8 for EPM Automate
Starting with the August (25.08) update, EPM Automate will discontinue the use of Java 8. Instead, it will start using Java 17.
Windows users of EPM Automate are not affected by this change because the Windows installer ships with the required Java distribution. Because the use of EPM Automate on macOS X, Linux/UNIX operating systems is dependent on a user installed Java version, users of such operating systems must update to Java 17 to continue using EPM Automate.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Ensuring connectivity between EPMAutomate and our Linux server to the cloud application is essential. We rely on EPMAutomate for critical activities such as cloud backups, IP whitelisting, POD migration, and managing metadata and data tasks using the on-premises ODI/FDMEE available on the Linux server.
