Operational environment
The operational environment in which the application edition manager runs is an Intelligent Management cell.
In the following illustration, the application edition manager manages applications that are deployed to dynamic clusters that receive work requests through an on demand router (ODR).

cluster
The SIP protocol is supported in Intelligent Management.
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 (Java EE) application calling another, unless the inter application access is accomplished by way of HTTP or HTTPS through another ODR layer.
