JBoss EAP is a leading Java application server running some of the most mission-critical enterprise applications in the world. This solution automates most boilerplate steps to provision a JBoss EAP cluster on Azure Virtual Machines. Once initial provisioning is complete, you are completely free to customize deployments further. The solution is jointly developed by Red Hat and Microsoft.

The following resources are automatically provisioned by the offer.

• Red Hat Enterprise Linux VMs (you can choose RHEL version, JDK version and EAP version, and the number of VMs - all instances will have private IP addresses)
• Azure App Gateway instance with a public IP address (the backend pool will be set to the VMs)
• JBoss EAP instances on each VM (EAP_HOME is /opt/rh/EAPVERSION/root/usr/share/wildfly where EAPVERSION is eap7 or eap8).
• Database connection, if desired.
• JBoss EAP management console on one of the VMs
• Domain mode enabled (optional)
• Red Hat build of OpenJDK on each VM (JAVA_HOME is a subdirectory of /usr/lib/jvm, depending on the selected JDK version).
• Virtual network and subnet (alternatively, you can deploy to an existing virtual network)
• Network security group
• OS disks attached to VMs
• Storage account for setting up Azure ping protocol for JGroups usage
• Storage account for sharing configuration files between VMs

This offer has two plans: Bring-Your-Own-Subscription (BYOS) and Pay-As-You-Go (PAYGO). To use BYOS, you must contact Red Hat to get your subscription enabled on Azure. Once you do so, the BYOS option will become visible as plans.

Red Hat and Microsoft provide similar solutions targeting JBoss EAP on single VMs, Azure Red Hat OpenShift, and App Service.
