1 Release Variations

This chapter explains the differences among Enterprise Back Office 9.1 release variations. It is intended to help you select the right one for your installation scenario.

All new installations must use the Enterprise Back Office 9.1 New Tech Stack variation. Oracle also recommends this release variation for those interested in upgrading their existing environment to the latest technology stack. This helps you stay compliant and continue to receive security updates.

Existing customers using Pentaho Interactive Reports can use the 9.1, 9.1 with OBIEE, or 9.1 New Tech Stack with Pentaho release variations. Oracle recommends that you migrate existing Pentaho Interactive Reports to iQuery. Instructions on how to do that can be found here:

CVE-2019-17571, CVE-2020-9488, CVE-2021-4104, CVE-2022-23302, CVE-2022-23305, CVE-2022-23307, CVE-2023-26464 in Apache Log4j 1.x used by Pentaho are non-exploitable for Oracle MICROS Enterprise Back Office 9.1 in supported configurations with the latest patches applied. Those security bugs will not be fixed. Oracle recommends upgrading to the Enterprise Back Office 9.1 New Tech Stack variation and migrating existing Interactive Reports to iQuery.

The earlier releases are still available if a replacement medium is needed to re-install an existing environment with exactly the same software, on the same underlying server machines. Those release variations are only available for existing environments and must be downloaded from My Oracle Support (MOS).
