If you are developing server-side applications or are going to monitor a local or remote Wowza Pro server on a machine, you need to install Java Development Kit version 5 (aka 1.5) or greater. If you are simply deploying Wowza Media Server Pro on a machine, then you need only install a Java runtime environment version 5 (aka 1.5) or greater. This section provides links to the resources you need to accomplish just that.


Java Runtime Environment (JRE) and Java Development Kit (JDK)

Wowza Media Server Pro is a Java 5 (aka 1.5) application. To run, it requires the installation of a Java 5 or greater runtime environment. To develop server-side applications, a Java Development Kit (JDK) version 5 or later is required.

Wowza Pro also implements a JMX management and monitoring interface that requires a JMX based console on any machine that is going to be used to monitor Wowza Pro. One of the more popular JMX consoles is JConsole, which ships with many Java vendor's JDKs.

Various Java downloads are available at http://java.sun.com.
