1. Re: Oracle Coherence source code availability
snidely_whiplash Jun 27, 2019 4:52 AM (in response to 3585806)Hey great idea!
Oracle could opensource Coherence like Pivotal did with Gemfire as Apache Geode and GridGain did with Apache Ignite. Also RedHat/JBoss Infinispan is open source, so is Hazelcast. IBM is a holdout with WebSphere eXtreme Scale but does anyone really care about them? I'd like to snoop through the code Cameron wrote at Tangosol.
But for now the answer to your question is "no".

Randy Stafford-Oracle Jun 27, 2019 4:15 PM (in response to 3585806)Hello 3585806,
At present, there is not a way to access the source code of the Oracle Coherence product, and patches to it, that is compliant with Oracle's product license.
As you may know, the Oracle Coherence product team maintains a number of open-source projects for capabilities that are complementary to the Oracle Coherence product, for example https://github.com/coherence-community and https://github.com/oracle/coherence-operator.
Best Regards,

snidely_whiplash Jul 16, 2019 7:53 PM (in response to Randy Stafford-Oracle)This page:
https://github.com/coherence-community/coherence-demo/blob/master/README.md
says:
"If you are using Coherence 12.2.1.4.0 or later version, run the following commands:"
I think that version number is incorrect.

12.2.1.4.0 is the upcoming Coherence patch set release, which will become generally available this calendar year. The Coherence Demo already works with it, hence the mention in the Demo README.md.
