Disconnected operation
Red Hat supports deployment of Service Interconnect in disconnected environments.
IBM Power ppc64le
Release 2.1.2 introduces images for IBM Power ppc64le.
If you have applications that require long lived connections, for example Kafka clients, consider using a load balancer as ingress instead of a proxy ingress such as OpenShift route. If you use an OpenShift route as ingress, expect interruptions whenever routes are configured.
