1. Re: JBoss Fuse in production environments
james.lopez Jan 14, 2014 11:45 AM (in response to sobkowiak)As of now, JBoss Fuse and Red Hat fuse are identical code, so there is very little if any risk just using the community version until you decide you need support.
For Fuse "support" is not only the documentation and customer services now hosted on the Red Hat Customer Portal, but it's also access to JBoss Operations Network and Fabric Management Console. In the future, there may also be stability and security patches that are only available to subscribing customers.
JBoss Operations Network and Fabric Management Console are highly recommended for production environments, but you are not obligated to use them. How will you monitor the health of your systems and manage their configurations?

2. Re: JBoss Fuse in production environments
sobkowiak Jan 14, 2014 12:32 PM (in response to james.lopez)I have often heard about community version of Fuse. Is this jboss-fuse/fuse · GitHub the community version? Does it mean, I can build the source code and use in production environment without subscription? Can I find somewhere releases of the community version?

james.lopez Jan 14, 2014 1:52 PM (in response to sobkowiak)Yes, that is the community code repo. The community releases are available for download from JBoss Products. You don't need a subscription to build and use the code in that repo, but keep in mind Fuse uses the Apache license: fuse/license.txt at master · jboss-fuse/fuse · GitHub

sobkowiak Jan 14, 2014 2:04 PM (in response to james.lopez)But in JBoss site (Red Hat JBoss Fuse) I can find following comment
Registration required. Downloads require accepting the terms and conditions of the JBoss Developer Program which provides $0 subscriptions for development use only.
What does it mean?

The source is released under the apache license. -

davsclaus Jan 16, 2014 4:23 AM (in response to james.lopez)1 of 1 people found this helpfulYes if you download the binaries from jboss fuse site, you must agree the EULA which states you must not use it in production without a subscription.
The community version is being rebranded as fabric8 and launched on a new website at fabric8.io. And we will do community released binaries and publish them to maven central etc.
Today you would need to build from the source yourself from github if you want the community version.
So stay tuned for the fabric8.io launch. They we are busy working on the JBoss Fuse 6.1 release. So it may take a while to get time to do the community launch.

rdavidso Jan 16, 2014 6:32 PM (in response to sobkowiak)Hi Claus,
Thanks for the answer. I am glad to hear that the community edition is being rebranded and it will have released binaries. Is there any plans to move Fabric over to ASF?
Thanks,
Richard
