Cloud deployment is the process of deploying user-created packages and
configurations that reside within on-premise runtimes or repositories to
Cloud Container.
Using
Software AG Designer
you can seamlessly deploy your on-premise
Integration Server
packages and configuration assets to solutions present on
Cloud Container.
Note: In the
Cloud Container
context, configuration assets are limited to
Integration Server
and
Universal Messaging
configurations.
Software AG Designer
allows you to deploy the
Integration Server
packages or configuration assets that you have created, verified, and tested on
on-premise
Integration Server
or
Universal Messaging
to
Cloud Container.
When you initiate the deployment from
Designer,
Integration Server
packages and configuration assets are built from
Integration Server,
and are published to an asset repository present in
Software AG Designer.
After performing variable substitutions to make the on-premise
configuration data compatible for
Cloud Container,
you can publish the packages and configurations from the asset repository to a
remote repository provisioned for the tenant on
Cloud Container.
Platform Manager plug-ins for
Integration Server
and
Universal Messaging
continuously monitor the remote repository on
Cloud Container.
When a fresh deployment is detected, Platform Manager plug-ins deploy the
Integration Server
packages and configuration assets to respective runtime instances on
Cloud Container.
Note: Deploying assets to
Cloud Container
using
Software AG Designer
eliminates the previous need to install or invoke
webMethods Deployer
on cloud for the purpose of
Cloud Container.
The following figure provides a high-level basic overview of the
process involved in deploying on-premise
Integration Server
packages and configuration assets to
Cloud Container.
