JBoss Enterprise Portal Platform supported configurations

Every JBoss® Enterprise Portal Platform (JBoss EPP) release is tested and certified on a variety of market-leading operating systems, Java™ Virtual Machines (JVMs), and database combinations.

Because we're 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 certified configurations for supported versions on JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (JBoss EAP). (Get details on the certified and compatible configurations for JBoss EAP.) 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 EPP.

JBoss Enterprise Portal Platform version JBoss Enterprise Application Platform version
JBoss EPP 4.3 JBoss EAP 4.3 FP01
JBoss EPP 5 JBoss EAP 5.01
JBoss EPP 5.1 JBoss EAP 5.1

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 JBoss EPP release. This list of certified configurations will expand over time. If you're a customer or partner interested in the status of specific combinations, please contact your Red Hat account manager.
