Technical solution patterns
Event-driven data management for Microservices
Event-driven data architecture is a way of designing applications and services to respond in real-time based on individual event notification information.
Reactive applications
Reactive applications are responsive, resilient, elastic and message-driven. They guarantee easy replication and non-blocking communication.
API lifecycles
APIs are central to mobile applications, cloud computing and the Internet of Things. It is essential to deal with full API lifecycle management.
Middleware community
Quarkus
The kubernetes-native framework Quarkus has a container-first design, optimizing it for low memory usage and fast startup times with first class support for Graal/SubstrateVM, build time metadata processing, reduction in reflection usage, and native image pre-boot.
Drools
Drools is a Business Rules Management System solution that provides a core Business Rules Engine, web authoring and rules management application, full runtime support for Decision Model and Notation, and an Eclipse IDE plugin.
Infinispan
Infinispan is a distributed in-memory key/value data store with optional schema, available under the Apache License 2.0.
jBPM
jBPM is a toolkit for building business applications to help automate business processes and decisions.
Camel K
Apache Camel K is a lightweight integration framework built from Apache Camel that runs natively on Kubernetes and is specifically designed for serverless and microservice architectures.
Strimzi
The Strimzi project provides a way to run an Apache Kafka cluster on Kubernetes in various deployment configurations. Getting up and running with an Apache Kafka cluster on Kubernetes is simple, with Strimzi.
Keycloak
Add authentication to applications and secure services with minimum fuss. No need to deal with storing users or authenticating users - it’s all available out of the box.
Optaplanner
OptaPlanner is an AI constraint solver that optimizes planning and scheduling problems, such as the vehicle routing problem, employee rostering, maintenance scheduling, task assignment, and more.
Syndesis
Syndesis can connect to any service you use with a a rich set of connectors out of the box. And if what you need doesn’t exist - a friendly developer will create one for you.
Debezium
Debezium is an open source distributed platform for change data capture. Start it up, point it at your databases, and your apps can start responding to all of the inserts, updates, and deletes that other apps commit to your databases. Debezium is durable and fast, so your apps can respond quickly and never miss an event, even when things go wrong.
Kogito
Kogito is a business automation project designed to run at scale on cloud infrastructure. The cloud is where your business logic lives. The latest technologies in Kogito provide fast boot times and instant scaling on orchestration platforms.
Thorntail
Thorntail is an innovative way to package and run Java EE applications by packaging them with just enough of the server runtime to “java -jar” your application. It’s MicroProfile compatible, too.
Teiid
Teiid is a Java component that can be embedded in your Java application to provide integrated access to multiple data sources through a single uniform API.
WildFly
WildFly is a flexible, lightweight, managed application runtime that helps you build amazing applications.

Monitor Node.js applications on Red Hat OpenShift with Prometheus
March 22, 2021A great thing about Node.js is how well it performs inside a container. With the shift to containerized deployments and environments comes extra complexity. One such complexity is observing what’s going on within your application and its resources, and when resource use is outside of the expected norms. Prometheus is a tool that developers can […]
An introduction to JavaScript SDK for CloudEvents
March 9, 2021In today’s world of serverless functions and microservices, events are everywhere. The problem is that they are described differently depending on the producer technology you use. Without a common standard, the burden is on developers to constantly relearn how to consume events. Not having a standard also makes it more difficult for authors of libraries […]
Deploying Node.js applications to Kubernetes with Nodeshift and Minikube
March 9, 2021In a previous article, I showed how easy it was to deploy a Node.js application during development to Red Hat OpenShift using the Nodeshift command-line interface (CLI). In this article, we will take a look at using Nodeshift to deploy Node.js applications to vanilla Kubernetes—specifically, with Minikube. Getting started If you want to follow along […]
Introduction to the Node.js reference architecture, Part 1: Overview
March 8, 2021Welcome to this new series introducing the Node.js reference architecture from Red Hat and IBM. This article is an overview of our reasons for developing the Node.js reference architecture—both what we hope the architecture will offer our developer community and what we do not intend it to do. Future articles will offer a detailed look […]
Making environment variables accessible in front-end containers
March 4, 2021When building a container for a single-page application using any modern JavaScript framework (such as Angular, React, or Vue.js), you might find that the configuration settings are different depending on where the container will run. A typical case would be the base URL for your API, which will differ depending on whether you are testing […]
