The {project_openshift_product_name} image version number {project_version} is based on {project_name} {project_version}. There are some differences in functionality between the {project_openshift_product_name} image and {project_name}:
* The {project_openshift_product_name} image includes all of the functionality of {project_name}. In addition, the {project_name}-enabled JBoss EAP image automatically handles OpenID Connect or SAML client registration and configuration for *_.war_* deployments that contain *<auth-method>KEYCLOAK</auth-method>* or *<auth-method>KEYCLOAK-SAML</auth-method>* in their respective *web.xml* files.
See the xPaaS part of the https://access.redhat.com/articles/2176281[OpenShift and Atomic Platform Tested Integrations page] for details about OpenShift image version compatibility.
The {project_openshift_product_name} image version number 7.0 and 7.1 are deprecated and they will no longer receive updates of image and application templates.
*To deploy new applications, it is recommended to use the version 7.2 or {project_version} of the {project_openshift_product_name} image along with the application templates specific to these image versions.*
The Tutorials in this guide follow on from and assume an OpenShift instance similar to that created in the https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en/red-hat-xpaas/0/single/openshift-primer[OpenShift Primer].
