Chapter 21. Setting up a Fabric Environment
The tooling provides an environment for developing and debugging fabric applications. Use the tooling to build a mock-up of your actual fabric into which you can deploy your application to test and debug it.
Overview
To set up a fabric environment, you must have access to an existing fabric.
Note
With Red Hat JBoss Fuse and the JBoss Server Extensions feature installed, you can start up Red Hat JBoss Fuse and create a fabric from inside the tooling. See Chapter 19, Managing servers
Setting up a fabric environment involves several basic steps:
- Providing the details for connecting to an existing fabric
- Connecting to the fabric
- Creating the containers that will host the various components of your distributed integration application
- Assigning each container one or more profiles, which provision containers by deploying and installing specified applications.
Note
For cloud applications, unless the cloud already has a fabric registry agent running on it, you must create one yourself before you can include it to your fabric environment. For details, see Chapter 26, Creating a Fabric in the Cloud.
