Getting started with containers
Containers provide a way to deploy a full FileNet® P8 environment in a fraction of the time required for a standard on-premises installation. Container deployments also enable you to patch or upgrade FileNet P8 components more quickly.
The FNCM operator must be used to install and deploy the content services containers on a Red Hat Open Shift Cloud Platform environment or on a certified Kubernetes environment.
Deploying on a container platform provides the following benefits:
- Rapid deployment of FileNet P8 Platform components
- Improved patching and upgrading for components
- Dynamic scalability
- Improved resiliency

- Content Platform Engine
- Content Search Services
