MCP currently runs on Java 11 with a Maven-based Spring Boot setup. At a high level, upgrading to Java 17 would involve:
·Update JDK Compatibility: Ensure the codebase, libraries, and plugins are compatible with Java 17.
·Maven Compiler Plugin: Update the maven-compiler-plugin configuration to target Java 17.
·Third-Party Dependencies: Verify all third-party libraries for Java 17 compatibility.
·Test Coverage: Perform full regression testing (unit and integration) to identify potential runtime issues.
·CI/CD Pipelines: Validate that the CI/CD build and deployment process works smoothly with Java 17.
Photon designs, builds, and runs custom software for large companies, combining an in-house creative agency with its own engineering teams. Its flagship client work includes rebuilding Samsung's US online store as a set of smaller linked services and creating Olive Garden's mobile app, which lets diners join the waitlist from their phones instead of waiting at the door. Clients hire Photon's teams to plan and code their apps, websites, and AI tools and to keep them running afterward, paying for the engineers and designers assigned to each project. Photon is privately held and based in London, with its US arm in Dallas and engineering centers in Chennai and Bengaluru.
