Application edition manager operational environment
The operational environment in which the application edition manager runs is a WebSphere® Virtual Enterprise cell.
In the following illustration, the application edition manager manages applications that are deployed to dynamic clusters that receive their work requests through an on demand router (ODR).

The SIP protocol is supported in WebSphere Virtual Enterprise Version 6.1.0.1
The application edition manager provides support for interruption-free
application upgrades only for applications accessed through the ODR by way
of the hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) or hypertext transfer protocol running
under the secure sockets layer (HTTPS). Service continuity during application
upgrade is not assured for inter application access, for example, one Java™ Platform,
Enterprise Edition 5 (Java EE 5) application calling another,
unless the inter application access is accomplished by way of HTTP or HTTPS
through another ODR layer.
