An IDC control is entirely dependent on a

Data Director

application for the structure and behavior of subject areas. Before creating the IDC control, the

Data Director

application should be built, deployed, and tested according to the instructions in the

Multidomain MDM Data Director Implementation Guide

or the

Data Director

Configuration Manager online help. Configured IDC controls are deployed in the same Java Memory Model (JMM) as the

Data Director

application instance within the same application server environment.
