Installing the prerequisite software
The application deployment sample requires that you have the software mentioned in this section installed. Within the example, you can choose between DB2 Universal Database or Derby as your database server. We used Derby for this chapter and our deployment exercises.
The sample for the working example environment consists of two nodes (see Table | 6-2 for product mapping):
| Developer node-This node is used by the developer to import the sample code and package the application in preparation for deployment. |
|
| Application server node-This node is used as the target server where the enterprise application will be deployed. |
Table 26-2
| Software | Version |
|---|---|
| Developer node | |
| Microsoft Windows | XP + Service Pack 2 + Critical fixes and security patches. |
| IBM Application Developer * Integrated IBM Application Server | v7.5 v7.0 |

| Application server node | |

Product mapping for deployment

Note: For detailed information about installing the required software for the sample, refer to Appendix | , Product installation. |

Tip: DB2 Universal Database or Derby You can use DB2 or Derby as database server. Because Derby is installed by default as part of the Application Server (integrated and stand-alone), we used Derby as the database for this chapter and the deployment exercises. |
