  • See Recommendations where AI identifies highly cohesive, lowly coupled partitions using unsupervised machine learning.
  • Refactor Applications whereby user can visualize and customize partitions in UI, then generate starter code to deploy partitions as microservices on Liberty.

Support is available for in-support versions of IBM Mono2Micro and the support is provided based on having active support entitlement for WebSphere Hybrid Edition or WebSphere Application Server for z/OS.

IBM Mono2Micro follows a Continuous Delivery (CD) model and has the following Software Support Lifecycle Policy:

  • A regular CD update (YY.0.N) may be made available as often as every 3 months.
    • Where YY stands for the year and N stands for the month of the CD update.
  • IBM Support is provided for the latest CD update and previous CD updates that are less than one year old.
  • Fixes and new functionality will only be provided in the next CD update package.

For supported open source components of IBM Mono2Micro:

  • If an identified problem requires a fix to an open source project, the ability to deliver this fix is contingent on the open source community project accepting and publishing the fix for the required version of the open source project.  IBM will supply reasonable effort to identify the fix and work with the community to have the fix included in an appropriate release.
