The main use case for Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (EAP) is to deploy web applications, WAR files and JAR files of our developed app, and also to use Red Hat JBoss orchestrator for containerization and everything.

We primarily use Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (EAP) for various environments such as dev, SIT, and prod, and we have been using it exclusively for SAP-based front-end while the back-end is Spring Boot, and we were using JBoss particularly for deploying these servers, with a very easy way to deploy the JAR files mainly.

We are currently using Ansible for Jira installations and all the management tasks. We perform some tasks manually, however, Ansible helps in automating some of these processes.

My main use case for JBoss is the administration of the application mostly.

My use case implies installation, configuration, and setting JBoss EAP on different systems such as Linux, Windows and configuring the standalone or domain. This implies working with the web console, automation tools, and CLI. Additionally, it involves securing it, implementing authentication, RBAC or Role-Based Access Control, SSL, TLS, and so on. Performance tuning, thread pool management, logging, and clustering are mostly what I have done with the product.

In my previous company, we relied on third-party APIs from a vendor. Recently, we were tasked with bringing those APIs in-house, reducing dependence on external vendors. We employed a JBoss server to facilitate the transition of these APIs into our existing system.

JBoss is an on-premises solution we use in a banking setting.  It is used to manage servers and applications. There are two modes: domain and development. We can monitor and control all types of deployments in JBoss.

We have around 20,000 to 30,000 users on the same application and everything is going via the JBoss. We were using JBoss 1.0 when I first installed it, but they've probably included some more security patches in the latest version.

The product is basically middleware. What we have is several applications running on JBoss. Basically, it is very old and there we have those services exposed. Our target is to move them to ERPC, or something more modern, like REST or ESPC, or a combination of both.

What we currently have here, still, is SOAP services, which is a very old middleware. They also are using it for scheduling some items such as some recurrent procedures. They have a queue manager as well.

JBoss is used for our main applications, it is our core system. All the core systems that we use are on JBoss and we use mod_proxy combined with WildFly to do the load balancing. Additionally, we use automation using Red Hat Ansible Tower, and for a web server, we use Red Hat for the entrance.
