differences in jdbc versions

[gadeyne.bram]

Hi,

I'm looking at upgrading teiid 8.11.3 to 8.13.5 or 9.0. Is there some sort of changelog specific to jdbc driver releases? I'm wondering if it is always necessary to upgrade the jdbc drivers as well.

Change log is always at Downloads · Teiid page. For example 8.13 change is Teiid ${project.version} Release Notes

It is not necessary to update the drivers in a given release, as server will be designed to be backwards compatible in a given release. However if there any improvements are bugs will not be captured with old driver. However if you are jumping from 8.x to 9.x releases, then Yes the update of JDBC driver is recommended as deprecated features in the past release may be removed. However, to a certain level you can still use same but, we suggest use caution and test in this case for sure.
