JBoss EAP across Azure
Whether your organization is running a heavily customized, clustered JBoss EAP deployment or has embraced container technologies, Azure has a cloud service to fit your needs. With Red Hat Enterprise Linux on Azure Virtual Machine Scale Sets (VMSS), you can easily lift-and-shift your on-prem JBoss EAP deployments. Azure Red Hat Openshift combines the innovation of enterprise Kubernetes with the world’s leading enterprise Linux platform, Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
App Service gives organizations the option to leverage a managed Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) for their cloud migrations. App Service provides APIs for deployment, features for network isolation, and auto scaling.
