In general, the life cycle of an adapter includes four stages: installation, configuration, deployment, and monitoring.The installation stage includes installing the vendor application to which the adapter connects and other software from TIBCO on which the adapter depends.For many adapters, the adapter and vendor application need not be installed on the same machine, while the TIBCO Runtime Agent software must be installed on each computer that runs the adapter.In the configuration stage, an adapter instance can be created and configured with a design-time tool. The configuration information is required for a runtime adapter to interact with the vendor application and other applications.The standalone adapter uses TIBCO Designer as its design-time tool, while the adapter Service Engine uses TIBCO Business Studio.An adapter instance created by TIBCO Designer can be deployed using TIBCO Administrator or TIBCO ActiveMatrix Administrator. In the latter case, you must first import the Designer project into TIBCO Business Studio or convert the EAR file to a service assembly.An adapter instance created by TIBCO Business Studio can only be deployed using TIBCO ActiveMatrix Administrator.
