Get Started

WSO2 Open Banking Accelerator is a technology stack catered to speed up the implementation of an open banking solution. You can use the WSO2 Open Banking Accelerator on top of the WSO2 Identity Server to obtain an environment for Identity Access Management in open banking.

This section guides you on how to set up the solution in a local environment. Follow the instructions to find how you can quickly set up and try out a basic flow.

Prerequisites

  1. Download Open Java Development Kit (OpenJDK) version 11 ,17 or 21 to the local environment based on the base product versions you use.

    Info

    See Compatibility for compatible JDK versions.

  2. In the environment variables, update the JAVA_HOME and PATH variables. For instance, you can do this on a Mac/Linux server by adding the following to the ~/.bashrc file: 

    export JAVA_HOME="<JDK_LOCATION>"
export PATH=$PATH:$JAVA_HOME/bin

  3. Setup a database server using any of the following:

    • MySQL 8.0
    • Oracle 19c
    • Microsoft SQL Server 2022
    • PostgreSQL 17.2

    Info
