Red Hat Lightwell Network · Java demo

Secure legacy Java deps on OpenShift Dev Spaces

TL;DR: This sandbox demo shows how Red Hat Lightwell Network remediates vulnerable Java deps via Nexus on OpenShift — for architects and DevSecOps. Expect ~15–20 minutes: open Dev Spaces, run three tasks, then compare image-scan CVEs vs Lightwell .rhlw coordinates (RHDA will not go "all green").

The subtle point: Artifact Hub may flag stock commons-io in the WildFly image scan, while the app itself builds with Lightwell .rhlw via Nexus — two different planes, both honest.

Primary action — run the demo in the cloud IDE:

Secure development journey

Lightwell remediates vulnerable Java deps; RHDA/TPA surfaces CVEs in the IDE; Tekton builds through Nexus→Lightwell on OpenShift. Images land on Quay (latest / contingency); GHCR is the public fallback.
