Deployer and Asset Build Environment
You use Deployer to deploy user-created assets that reside on source Software AG runtimes or repositories to target Software AG runtimes. For example, you might want to deploy assets you have developed on servers in a development environment (the source) to servers in a test or production environment (the target).
Deployer supports two scenarios for deploying assets:
In a runtime-based deployment scenario,
Deployer deploys assets from
Software AG runtimes to which
Deployer is connected for example,
Integration Servers,
My webMethods Server, and
Trading Networks Servers).
In a repository-based deployment scenario,
Deployer deploys assets built from sources in a development environment or VCS and stored on a repository (for example,
API Gateway,
Rules Engine, and
Universal Messaging.
Asset Build Environment resides on the machines on which assets are created and supplies the scripts and libraries necessary to build assets into deployable units.
