Chapter 2. Features

This section contains information about feature changes introduced in the current release.

2.1. New and Changed features

2.1.1. Support for Node.js Runtime on IBM Z

The Red Hat build of Node.js for s390x platform is supported only in OpenShift environments provisioned on IBM Z infrastructure. Running an Node.js application on a stand-alone installation of RHEL on IBM Z is not supported.

New images for products supported on IBM Z are available in the Red Hat Container Catalog.

2.1.2. Deploying example applications on OpenShift provisioned on IBM Z infrastructure

To deploy the example applications on OpenShift environments provisioned on IBM Z infrastructure, specify the relevant IBM Z image name in the package.json file and commands.

Some of the example applications also require other products, such as Red Hat Data Grid to demonstrate the workflows. In this case, you must also change the image names of these products to their relevant IBM Z image names in the YAML file of the example applications.

The Secured example application in Node.js requires Red Hat SSO 7.3. Since Red Hat SSO 7.3 is not supported on IBM Z, the Secured example is not available for IBM Z.
