Red Hat Releases New Cloud Based PaaS Services for Application Integration and Messaging

Red Hat has released OpenShift Enterprise 2.2 and is also augmenting its xPaaS offerings with a new private integration JBoss Platform-as-a-Service (iPaaS) offering to provide cloud-based services for application integration and messaging.

 

The new Red Hat JBoss xPaaS services blend the flexibility of PaaS with middleware capabilities in an enterprise-ready package. Red Hat’s new offering can help expand enterprise application development by combining the company’s middleware stack and PaaS technologies to create a unified development and operations experience. 

In addition to the application container service based on Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform and new available integration and messaging services, JBoss xPaaS technologies now available in developer preview include services for data virtualization, mobile, application containers, business process management, and business rules management.

 

JBoss Fuse for xPaaS and JBoss A-MQ for xPaaS are based on Red Hat’s traditional on-premise integration and messaging offerings, Red Hat JBoss Fuse and Red Hat JBoss A-MQ. The latest versions of both products offer features such as support for AMQP 1.0, a large library of connectors, improved high availability, and the ability to manage processes.

 

The release of OpenShift Enterprise 2.2 brings improved integration with existing datacenter infrastructure and enables deployment on a variety of virtualization and cloud technologies through integration with Red Hat CloudForms, the company’s hybrid cloud management offering. OpenShift Enterprise 2.2 provides out-of-the-box integration with identity management and DNS management platforms for integration into enterprise datacenters. 

In addition, OpenShift Enterprise 2.2 offers enhanced PaaS management for operations by the addition of application placement and middleware cartridge configuration controls. OpenShift Enterprise deployment can be fully automated and controlled by Red Hat CloudForms. This capability enables OpenShift Enterprise to be deployed automatically to any hybrid cloud infrastructure managed by CloudForms.
