Chapter 2. New features and enhancements


Red Hat JBoss Web Server 6.0 Service Pack 4 includes the following new features and enhancements.

2.1. Java 21 support

JBoss Web Server 6.0 is now certified for use with Red Hat build of OpenJDK 21 and Oracle JDK 21.

Note

Java 21 is now fully tested and supported for both RPM package and archive file distributions of JBoss Web Server 6.0.

This service pack release is not available in archive file format, but the existing JBoss Web Server 6.0 archive file distributions are fully compatible with Java 21 support.

2.2. JWS for OpenShift image for OpenJDK 21

This release introduces support for importing JWS for OpenShift images that are compatible with OpenJDK 21. In this release, you can import a jboss-webserver60-openjdk21-tomcat10-openshift-ubi8 image.

Note

For more information about importing the jboss-webserver60-openjdk21-tomcat10-openshift-ubi8 image, see the RHEA-2024:6900 advisory.

Because this Service Pack 4 release is not available in archive file format, the latest jboss-webserver60-openjdk21-tomcat10-openshift-ubi8 image is based on the 6.0.3 archive file distribution.
