Liferay DXP and the Move to Jakarta EE
19 Dec 2025
In the 2025.Q3 release, Liferay DXP is switching the underlying enterprise coding platform from Java EE 8 to the latest enterprise Java platform, which was renamed to Jakarta EE., content: Liferay has always leveraged the industry standard Java Enterprise Edition (EE) technologies to build DXP. This is a significant and necessary evolution that allows Liferay DXP to run on modern application servers (e.g., Tomcat 10.1, JBoss EAP 8). However, it is a breaking change from previous releases. Custom code and certain dependencies will require updates to be compatible with the new standard. We understand that this industry-wide shift from Java EE to Jakarta EE represents a significant undertaking. Liferay is committed to making this migration as smooth as possible for our customers and users. To that end, we are providing documentation and tooling to automate many of the required code changes. Our goal is to equip you with the resources and support needed to successfully navigate this important evolution.
