Deployment to Informatica Cloud

Deployment to Informatica Cloud

The business process archive (.bpr file) contains all the resources needed to deploy your project resources to an Informatica Cloud Secure Agent.
When deploying to Informatica Cloud, either to the Cloud Server or to a Secure Agent, there are two requirements not applicable when deploying on-premises:
  1. Specify Allowed Roles.
  2. Set the Server Deployment Option to File.
This topic describes how to set these options in Process Developer and how to:
  • Deploy to Informatica Cloud Server
  • Deploy to a Secure Agent
Specify Allowed Roles
You specify the roles allowed to run the process in the .pdd as follows:
  1. Select a process in which you can specify roles. For example, open the My Role panel, select Document Literal for the Binding style:
    loanProcessor selected when creating a PDD
  2. In the Service field, type a name to identify the role.
  3. Add all the allowed roles that will be able to access the process.
    You must add at least one allowed role so that users can access your application.
Set the Server Deployment Option to File
When you export your project to a BPR file, you complete a dialog similar to the following. By default, the Server Deployment Option (Type) is set to None.
To deploy to Informatica Cloud, you must change this value. Select
File
from the Type list:
Export Business Process Archive

Deploying to Informatica Cloud Server

To deploy a process to Informatica Cloud after you have created the .bpr file, follow these steps:
  1. Log in to Informatica Cloud. The user must have administrative privileges.
  2. Select
    Home
    Process Monitor
    .
  3. In the upper-right corner of the Process Console page, click
    Deploy
    .
  4. In the dialog, click
    Browse
    to select your
    .bpr
    file.
    You can't deploy the Business Process Archive (.bpr) file on the Cloud Server if the .bpr file contains the following extensions:
    .mp4, .mkv, .exe, .php, .jsp, .pdf, .mp3, .bpr, .zip, .rar, .tar, .py, .java, .cpp, .bash
  5. From the
    Deploy Target list
    , choose Cloud Server:
    Deploy dialog
  6. Click
    Deploy
    .
  7. Within the Process Monitor, select
    Catalog
    Process Definitions
    to verify that your process was deployed.

Requirements for Deploying to a Secure Agent

When you deploy a process to a secure agent, the process is similar to deploying on the Cloud Server. In addition, take these steps:
  1. Provide the Endpoint Reference as shown below.
  2. Select these options:
    • Invoke Handler: Process
    • Endpoint type: Static
For example:
Partner Link tab showing agent address
The structure of this address is
agent:
agent_name
:
agent_service
agent
This tells Process Developer what kind of information follows.
agent_name
Typically, this is the system where the agent runs.
agent_service
The name of the installed service.
When deploying the process in the Process Console, select the same agent name you used in the endpoint reference as the Deploy Target:
