Microsoft Azure Application Service Support for IBM Websphere LIBERTY container?

Question

Does anyone know if IBM Websphere Liberty container is supported on Azure? While I am trying to create a web application and trying to select JAVA Container the options I get is TOMCAT and JETTY only I dont see IBM Websphere Liberty as an available option?

Any help on this? I am trying to migrate some IBM hosted apps to Azure.

UPDATES (04/28) RESOLVED:- We ended up creating a Docker container with Open Liberty and used that as base docker image for Azure web-apps. We did face some issues and that were fixed wrt DOCKER File and SSL for azure-websites as our web-app was talking with another Azure Web-API over ssl (HTTPS) so gotta take care of it. that thread is here on how to copy the .CER file as JSK to Docker Image. https://stackoverflow.com/posts/comments/98429780?noredirect=1

Answer 1

Based on the official document,only tomcat and jetty are supported in the Container Options.

Azure Web APP service is PASS level service. In my opinion, such heavy enterprise-level intermediate container like WebLogic or Websphere are obviously not suitable for PASS level service,even though for the Docker.If you want to migrate IBM hosted apps to Azure,i suggest you considering to use Azure VM to host enterprise application.
