Chapter 1. Introduction


JBoss EAP 7 can be used with the Microsoft Azure platform, as long as you use it within the specific supported configurations for running JBoss EAP in Azure. If you are configuring a clustered JBoss EAP environment, you must apply the specific configurations necessary to use JBoss EAP clustering features in Azure.

Note

You can also run JBoss EAP 7.2 on Azure App Service, a managed hosting service for web and API applications, as public preview. For more information, see Public Preview: A managed JBoss EAP experience on Azure.

This guide details the supported configurations of using JBoss EAP in Microsoft Azure, as well as the specific JBoss EAP configuration required to enable JBoss EAP clustering in Azure. All other JBoss EAP features not mentioned in this guide operate normally in Azure as with any other JBoss EAP installation. See the other JBoss EAP documentation for non-Azure-specific configuration instructions.
