JBoss Enterprise SOA Platform Certified & Compatible Configurations
Every JBoss Enterprise SOA Platform release is tested and certified on a variety of market leading Operating Systems, Java Virtual Machines (JVMs), and Database combinations. Since we are not able to test every possible combination, this page also describes what we consider fully supported and compatible configurations. Red Hat supports both Certified and Compatible configurations.
Compatible Configurations
Compatible Configurations include any operating system capable of running one of the JVM version families from the table below, as well as any database specifically listed below. Red Hat will provide both production and development support for these compatible configurations (according to your corresponding subscription agreement) as long as your support issue is within the context of applications running on or with JBoss SOA Platform. Red Hat relies on the testing and certification process of the underlying JVM for platform compatibility. Fully supported and compatible configurations are listed here:
- • JBoss SOA Platform 4.3
- • JBoss SOA Platform 4.2
Certified Configurations
Certified Configurations are a defined set of validated, tested, and recommended Operating Systems, chip architectures, JVM, and database combinations.
These represent the most common combinations that JBoss Enterprise Middleware customers are using.
For these configurations, Red Hat has directly, or through certified partners, exercised a full range of platform certification tests as part of the product release process.
Issues identified as part of this testing process are highlighted in Release Notes for each SOA Platform release.
This list of Certified Configurations will expand over time, and if you are a customer or partner interested in the status of specific combinations, please contact your Red Hat Account Manager.
- • JBoss SOA Platform 4.3
- • JBoss SOA Platform 4.2
