Planned removal of protocols and functionality

Support will be discontinued in a future version for the following protocol technologies and functionality. In some cases, this is due to product versions that are no longer supported by their vendors.

Protocol	Product/feature
Java	Java 8
MAPI	Microsoft Messaging Application Programming Interface 2016
Oracle 2-Tier	Oracle Database 12c
.NET+ protocol	.NET 6.0
TruClient	Support will be removed for the following features: · TruClient - Mobile Web protocol. Use the TruClient - Web protocol instead. · Synchronous APIs in JavaScript code. Instead, use asynchronous API calls. · The Connections measurement. · Configuring start and end events for a transaction.
