Before You Begin
You can containerize a TIBCO BusinessEvents application by using Docker. You can also run the dockerized TIBCO BusinessEvents application in a Kubernetes cluster on the cloud platform of your choice.
Supported Versions
Before you begin, see TIBCO BusinessEvents Readme for supported versions of Docker and cloud platforms.
Concepts
Before you begin, you must be familiar with the following concepts and services:
- Docker concepts. See Docker Documentation.
- Kubernetes concepts. See Kubernetes Documentation.
- Administration knowledge of the cloud platform and the service that you want to use:
Preparing for TIBCO BusinessEvents Containerization
Ensure that you have the following infrastructure in place:
- A machine with the Docker installation and initial setup based on your operating system, to generate Docker images. For complete information about Docker installation, see Docker Documentation.
- TIBCO BusinessEvents installation and a TIBCO BusinessEvents project that you want to deploy and run on the cloud. For installation instructions, see the TIBCO BusinessEvents® Installation.
- Installer ZIP files for the following software:
- TIBCO BusinessEvents
- TIBCO ActiveSpaces (for cache-based projects)
- TIBCO BusinessEvents add-ons (if your project uses it)
Note: (macOS only) On the macOS platform, you can build only Linux containers. To build a Docker image on macOS, you must store the TIBCO BusinessEvents Linux installer ZIP file (TIB_businessevents-enterprise_<version>_linux26gl25_x86_64.zip) on your computer instead of the macOS installer ZIP file. Similarly, if your application uses cache, download Linux installers for TIBCO ActiveSpaces. Or if it uses TIBCO BusinessEvents add-ons, download Linux installers for TIBCO BusinessEvents add-ons on your computer. - (Optional) For monitoring TIBCO BusinessEvents applications, install TIBCO Enterprise Administrator with the latest hotfix. For installation instructions, see TIBCO Enterprise Administrator documentation.
- If you are running the application in a Kubernetes cluster on a cloud platform, ensure that you have an active account on that cloud platform.
