Virtual Environments such as VMware are unsupported and not recommended due to performance problems.These performance issues are especially significant for clustered Confluence.

While some of our customers run Confluence on SPARC-based hardware, Atlassian only officially supports Confluence running on x86 hardware and 64-bit derivatives of x86 hardware.

Supported operating systems:

  • Windows (including 64-bit)
  • Linux
  • Mac OS X
  • Solaris
  • Unix

Confluence should work on any system that has Java 5 support. If you can get Confluence running on an unsupported operating system we will still try to help you if you encounter problems, but we may ask you to move to a supported operating system before we can provide more detailed support.
