Would such a change to Java release schedule be affecting CA API Gateway users?

Environment:

Release:
Component: APIGTW

Resolution:

Oracle Java release schedule type change from feature-driven to time-driven does not affect CA API products.

CA will always verify that the Java version provided to CA's customers using the CA API OVA is secured.
