I work for Manulife and we have Aspose.words (Java and .Net) license. We are promoting few of our Java application to Cloud (PCF). At present we are using the Aspose.Words.jdk15.jar all our JDK 8 version applications compatible with this jar version. But in our organization Artifactory we found aspose-cloud-words-1.0.0.jar not sure whether this jar will be compatible with all our applications.
Please let us know the difference between the two and any specific/ latest jars you recommend for our applications.
Thanks for your inquiry. Please note Aspose.Words for Java is Downloadable Java API, developed on top of the JRE and it can be used in any application (desktop or web) based on the Java platform. You need to perform document operations on your own servers. Downloadable APIs are used for self-hosted solutions when the customer need more control and security.
Whereas Aspose.Words Cloud APIs are REST APIs and can be used in any language/platform which supports REST. It is based on Aspose.Words for .NET downloadable API. You just upload the files, perform any operation and download the output. All processing is done at Aspose Cloud Servers. You may please check latest Aspose.Words Cloud SDK for Java Jar and evaluate it. Please also check following Aspose.Words Cloud resources.
