Chapter 2. Supported Migration Toolkit for Applications migration paths


The Migration Toolkit for Applications (MTA) supports the following migrations:

  • Migrating from third-party enterprise application servers, such as Oracle WebLogic Server, to JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (JBoss EAP).
  • Upgrading to the latest release of JBoss EAP.
  • Migrating from a Windows-only .NET 4.5+ Framework to cross-platform .NET 8.0. (Developer Preview)

MTA provides a comprehensive set of rules to assess the suitability of your applications for containerization and deployment on Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform (RHOCP). You can run an MTA analysis to assess your applications' suitability for migration to multiple target platforms.
