Management using JONThe use of Red Hat JBoss Operations Network (JON) for managing JBoss EAP is deprecated.
SAAJ 1.3JBoss EAP 7.3 will ship with SAAJ 1.4 (default) and 1.3. User defined SOAP Handlers which are not SAAJ 1.4 compliant, should be updated to be compliant as SAAJ 1.3 is deprecated. The system property -Djboss.saaj.api.version=1.3 can be set to restore the SAAJ 1.3 behavior while the SOAP Handler is being updated.

Dependent Components

The following components have been included for dependency purposes only and are not fully supported for production or development as part of a JBoss Enterprise Application Platform subscription:

Component Comments
Quartz Job Scheduler The Quartz Job Scheduler is used internally by the Java EE Timer Service and Seam Asynchronous methods with the Quartz Dispatcher. It is only supported within these contexts.
JBoss jBPM 3.2 (jPDL) This item is required to implement pageflow features for JBoss Seam, so the use of this component is only supported within this context.
JBoss Rules 5 (Drools) This item is required to implement rule-based security features for JBoss Seam, so the use of this component is only supported within this context.
Hypersonic SQL This component provides default out-of-the-box database functionality for JBoss EAP for evaluation and development use only. Hypersonic SQL is not recommended or supported for production use.

Technology Preview Components

Some features in JBoss EAP 5 are provided as technology preview. This means that while these components have been included in JBoss EAP, they're not considered functionally complete and are not suitable for production use. So they're supported in development (according to your corresponding subscription agreement) but not recommended or supported for production use.

These components are included as a customer convenience and to provide the components' features with wider exposure. Customers are encouraged to provide feedback and suggestions for a technology preview feature before it becomes fully supported. Red Hat® intends to fully support technology preview features in a future release.
