PTV proudly presents: PTV xServer 2.28...

The PTV xServer 2.28 is released! Main reason is the Java 17 support, which is the latest Java LTS (Long-Term-Support) version. Please note that Java 8 is no longer supported. As Java is not integrated in the PTV xServer, you have to install Java 17 separately. And there are two additional highlights:

xCluster

• Support of Gurobi as standard optimization solver to improve the planning results

xRoute

• Support of restricted road sections in Austria ("Ziel- und Quellverkehr", data available in the HERE maps from 2023.2H on)

xTour

• Performance improvements
• Quality improvements

The PTV Content Update Service 2.28 is also available and supports Java 8 and Java 17. It is still possible to run PTV xServer 1 (Java 8) and 2 (Java 17) on the same system as you can set an additional environment variable like 'XSERVER1_JAVA_HOME' to the Java 8 path.

The on-premise solution can be found here:

• Developer Zone (login required)

The cloud solution PTV xServer internet will be updated according to this plan:

• 21.02.23: Productive system hosted in Europe
• 22.02.23: Productive system hosted in US
• 23.02.23: Productive system hosted in Australia

Please ensure to look into this article about the usage of different Java runtimes.

Thanks to Haba for the input,
