Extended Life Support (ELS) 2: support

Q: Should I migrate to Fuse 7.x?

Your existing Fuse 6 applications will continue to work as before but you should think about creating new applications using the latest Fuse version. At some point in the future, migration of existing Fuse 6 applications will be necessary if you want to keep Red Hat support for them.

Q: How to migrate to latest Fuse version?

Migration is described in details on Red Hat pages but basically you should read Migration to Fuse 7.0 and then Migration to Fuse 7.5.1 (latest version at the time of writing this document).

There is no automated migration – you will have to rebuild and redeploy you applications to use the latest Fuse version.

Q: What are benefits of the latest Fuse version?

The latest Fuse version family ensures you Red Hat support availability.

The latest Fuse version updates a lot of frameworks and libraries used by Fuse and provides many new features. Tooling support in IDEs you use to develop Fuse application is improved between versions. In many cases new version could make your development process faster and give you more tools to use.
