How to Create, Deploy, and Update an Application

How to Create, Deploy, and Update an Application

Create and edit mappings and other objects and deploy them in an application to make them accessible to end users.
The following image shows the process of developing and deploying an application:
This image shows a flowchart for the process of developing and deploying an application. The text below the image explains each part of the process.
  1. Create mappings, workflows, transformations, and other objects to access and transform data.
  2. Create an application and add objects to the application.
  3. Choose to deploy the application directly to a Data Integration Service or to an application archive file:
    • Deploy the application directly to a Data Integration Service to allow the Data Integration Service to run objects.
    • Deploy the application to an application archive file to allow an administrator to archive the file.
  4. Deploy the archive file to a Data Integration Service.
  5. Test the application to ensure that it meets organizational requirements.
After you test the application, you can maintain the application by editing application objects and updating the deployed application. To help you edit the application objects, you can connect to the run-time application to review how the run-time objects are designed.
The following image shows how an application is maintained:
This image shows a flowchart for the process of maintaining an application. The text below the image explains each part of the process.
  1. If the output does not meet requirements, edit the objects in the application.
  2. Choose to update the application by redeploying the application or by deploying an application patch. You can deploy an application patch only if the application is an incremental application.
  3. If you choose to deploy a patch, create the patch using the Incremental Deployment Wizard.
  4. Deploy the patch to the Data Integration Service, optionally deploying the application patch to an archive file.
For information on how to create and deploy an application patch, see the "Application Patch Deployment" chapter.
An administrator can also deploy an application and perform other administrative tasks from the command line or from the Administrator tool. For information about these tasks, see the
Informatica Application Service Guide
