Part of the WebSphere family of products, WebSphere Liberty and Open Liberty are next generation Java platforms and are important to cloud modernization of mission critical enterprise Java workloads. Open Liberty is the production-ready, open-source base for WebSphere Liberty. Sharing the same core implementation, both offerings are fast, lightweight, modular, and container-friendly cloud native runtimes with robust support for industry standards such as Java EE, Jakarta EE, and MicroProfile.

This solution automates most boilerplate steps to provision WebSphere Liberty or Open Liberty on an Azure Red Hat OpenShift cluster. Once initial provisioning is complete, you are completely free to customize deployments further. The solution is jointly developed by IBM and Microsoft.

The following resources are automatically provisioned by the offer.

OpenShift cluster (alternatively, you can deploy to an existing OpenShift cluster)
OpenShift Container Registry (OCR) enabled
Liberty Operator
Secure OpenShift namespace to contain your application
Sample getting started application - optional
Custom application deployment - optional
Virtual network and two subnets

Azure RedHat OpenShift requires a minimum of 40 cores to create and run an OpenShift cluster. Please ensure your subscription has sufficient quota.

A quick start for WebSphere Liberty/Open Liberty on OpenShift is available here.

This offer is Bring-Your-Own-License, and assumes you have sufficient entitlements. WebSphere Liberty is available as a limited Trial option before entitlement is required. Open Liberty is open source and free to use unsupported. You can also use OpenLiberty supported through WebSphere Liberty entitlements. When using WebSphere Liberty or Open Liberty supported, usage should be tracked using the License Service Operator.

IBM and Microsoft also provide basic step-by-step instructions on getting started with Liberty and Azure RedHat OpenShift without automated provisioning.

IBM and Microsoft provide similar solutions targeting WebSphere (traditional) on Azure VMs (single instance or cluster), on Azure VM Images (ND, Base, or HTTP Server), and Liberty on the Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS). These options are linked in the Learn more section below.
