Red Hat OpenShift Application Runtimes empowers cloud-native development

Red Hat has announced the general availability of Red Hat OpenShift Application Runtimes. The announcement aims to enable organisations to accelerate cloud-native app development with a curated set of frameworks and runtimes for prescriptively building and running microservices-based applications.

Red Hat OpenShift Application Runtimes leverages the company’s decade-plus of experience with Red Hat JBoss Middleware to build from the ground up a solution for the next generation of microservices-based application development. Red Hat aims to balance the developers’ need for choice with the operational requirement for standardisation and support.

It provides a tightly integrated and fully supported offering for developing microservices in multiple languages and frameworks. Certified and supported runtimes available with Red Hat OpenShift Application Runtimes include Java EE, WildFly Swarm, Eclipse MicroProfile, Eclipse Vert.x, Node.js and Spring Boot.

The key features and benefits include simplified development and strategic flexibility. Combined with the OpenShift service catalogue, enterprise IT organisations can take full advantage of multi-cloud investments by integrating cloud based services. Due to the integration of Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform with Red Hat OpenShift Application Runtimes, developers get access to a fully automated platform for provisioning, building and deploying applications and their components.
