Question
From what version of prpc does websphere liberty ND is supported?
From what version of prpc does websphere liberty ND is supported? Currently we are using distributed Websphere ND 7.0.0.33 and the plan is to use websphere liberty in private cloud.
Current deployments in our environment is done as EAR deployments ( apps running on PRPC 5.4 through PRPC 7.1.7 ). We have numerous integrations to MQ, external/ internal webservices, rightfax etc. Does the WAR installations can cause any bottlenecks if we plan to migrate the apps from 5.4/ 6.1/6/2/ versions with EAR deployments to the 7.2 version?
Please refer to this IBM link to see what features can be impacted by migrating to liberty profile: Making the move to the Liberty profile, Part 1: Determining migration suitability using the Liberty Technology Preview. The current core profile does not support JMS, so if you are running MDB, Connect-JMS, that could be potential problem. Connect-MQ should work with war deployment.
