To try out the Liberty profile, and use the Liberty profile to develop applications that run on the WebSphere Application Server Liberty profile or full profile, you can download the no-charge developer edition from the WASdev community download page. This edition runs on distributed platforms including IBM i, and Mac OS.

To use the Liberty profile in a production environment with guaranteed service levels and IBM support, you must purchase WebSphere Application Server (base), WebSphere Application Server Network Deployment, WebSphere Application Server Express®, or WebSphere Application Server Liberty Core. The Liberty profile is included with these editions, and can also be downloaded separately, as an edition-specific archive file, from Passport Advantage® online. The associated service is available from Fix Central.

For Windows, Linux, and Mac OS, you can also install the WebSphere Application Server Developer Tools for Eclipse, then use the tools to install the profile.
