Introduction
When you have completed and tested the first prototype of your integration project in the development environment, you are ready to deploy it to a testing environment.
In a traditional business integration project, domain configuration is a labor-intensive process that is likely to require multiple iterations before all components are in place. The TIBCO Administrator must tweak the configuration files for different components on different machines. To optimize the configuration, TIBCO Administrator must manually keep a record of the different configurations that were tested.
ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks, in contrast, allows you to use the TIBCO Administrator GUI to create a deployment configuration and then deploy the project.
-
You use the TIBCO Designer GUI to create an Enterprise Archive file (EAR file) containing the adapter configurations and process definitions you wish to deploy.
-
TIBCO Administrator uses the EAR file when creating the deployment configuration.
-
You can deploy the project in TIBCO Administrator and the necessary scripts and other information is sent to the machines within the deployment.
