VA, Office of Information and Technology has a requirement for the renewal of brand name Oracle Java Standard Edition Subscriptions for desktop and server software maintenance, which is inclusive of access to software updates, fixes, security alerts and patches, and 24 x 7 customer support/assistance. Java is a computing platform and software commonly known as middleware that enables software applications and websites to work independent of each other. Java enables the software application to be written once but be accessible from any type of device (PC, MAC, Smartphone, etc.) and on different operating systems (Windows, MAC OS, Linux, etc.). Currently, there are 150 VA applications utilizing long term support versions of Oracle Java, versions 8 and 11, that encompass 19,300 server subscriptions as well as 24,000 desktop subscriptions. VA requires software maintenance to support the current desktops and servers that these applications run on. This proposed action is for software maintenance only and no new software will be procured.
