Provide support for WXS connectivity to JDK 17 & JDK 21 application JVMs running on Websphere MoRE

We have our applications running on WebSphere 9.5.5 with java8 connecting to WebSpher eXtreme Scale cache grids seamlessly by dropping java8 wsogclient_8.6.1.6_WXS61457.jar inside WAS product lib/ext directory today. We are trying to modernize our application runtime environment by working with IBM with project London/MoRE to create JDK17 & JDK21 application JVMs, we still have the need from applications to connect to existing WXS grids. We need to be able to connect to existing cache grids simultaneously from application running on Java8/Java17/Java21 within a single WebSphere cell as our entire estate doesn't get migrated java17 or java21 at a time. We are requesting for a wsogclient jar that can either be compatible with all versions of JAVA or provide a way to simultaneously connect from a single WebSphere cell.

    We are currently working on adding support for Java 17 in both the WXS client and server, which will be included in our upcoming release, scheduled for the end of August 2025. This aligns with your requirement for wsogclient_8.6.1.6_WXS61457.jar with Java 17 support. Discussions are ongoing regarding support for Java 21. Important
    Note: Please be aware that JWXS with ava 17 does not support the FIPS security protocol.
