Deploying the module
Deploy a module to place the files that make up your module and adapter into an operational environment for production or testing. In IBM Integration Designer, the integrated test environment features runtime support for IBM BPM or WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus, or both, depending on the test environment profiles that you selected during installation.
- Deployment environments
There are test and production environments into which you can deploy modules and adapters.- Deploying the module for testing
In IBM Integration Designer, you can deploy a module that includes an embedded adapter to the test environment and work with server tools that enable you to perform such tasks as editing server configurations, starting, and stopping servers and testing the module code for errors. The testing is generally performed on the interface operations of your components, which enables you to determine whether the components are correctly implemented and the references are correctly wired.- Deploying the module for production
Deploying a module created with the external service wizard to IBM BPM or WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus in a production environment is a two-step process. First, you export the module in IBM Integration Designer as an enterprise archive (EAR) file. Second, you deploy the EAR file using the IBM BPM or WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus Process Administrative Console.- Deploying the module in a clustered environment
In IBM Integration Designer, you can deploy the IBM WebSphere Adapter for JDBC in a clustered environment.
