Deploy

Deployment is a routine administration task that manages the life cycle of a mobile business object (MBO) package on the Unwired Server. Deployment makes a package available to the runtime environment, so that it can be administered or accessed by client devices. Deployment is similar to, but not the same as, exporting and importing packages between multiple cluster environments.

Depending on the package type, the deployment steps can vary.

• Packages
  Packages are collections of MBOs that are related by application use and authorship and grouped according to maintenance or distribution. Packages are initially created by developers, but are deployed and maintained on a production Unwired Server by administrators.
• Mobile Workflows
  Mobile Workflow packages support occasionally connected users and solve the replication and synchronization issues such users present with respect to data concurrency. Worfkflow packages are similar to other package types in that an administrator must deploy the package to Unwired Server so that it can be configured and made available to client devices.
