Purpose

The Deploy service is a core service. It manages the deployment of J2EE applications and the distribution of their modules to the corresponding containers across the cluster. It controls all actions that can be performed on applications during their lifecycle, such as requesting containers for information about deployed applications and their modules, or initiating a demand to modify them. It also ensures that all deployed applications in the cluster are homogeneous and up-to-date.

Features

The Deploy Service runs on the server side only.

You can perform runtime administration, which includes:

·        Manage the deployment of applications

·        Observe the status of the deployed applications

·        Request information about the application components or

·        Remove applications and to change the application status.

Depending on your needs, you can specify different application startup modes for your applications.

As a response to your actions in the runtime management, the Deploy service performs deployment operations. They change the application status of the targeted applications.
