Red Hat SummitChapter 4. Supported configurations for running JBoss EAP in Microsoft Azure
This section describes the supported configurations for running JBoss EAP in Microsoft Azure.
4.1. Supported virtual machine operating systems for using JBoss EAP
The only virtual machine operating systems supported for using JBoss EAP in Microsoft Azure are:
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9
- Microsoft Windows Server 2019
- Microsoft Windows Server 2022
The Red Hat Cloud Access program allows you to use a JBoss EAP subscription to install JBoss EAP on your own Azure virtual machine or one of the above On-Demand operating systems from the Microsoft Azure Marketplace. Note that virtual machine operating system subscriptions are separate from a JBoss EAP subscription.
Other than the above operating system restrictions, see the Customer Portal for further information on supported configurations for JBoss EAP, such as supported Java Development Kit (JDK) vendors and versions.
4.2. Azure Autoscale capabilities for JBoss EAP clustering
Vertical scaling is supported for all JBoss EAP clustering use cases.
+ The following horizontal scaling use cases are also supported:
Distributed HTTP sessions
