Deployment

What is deployment?

Deployment is the process of distributing the files that made up an application to install it on target computers (servers).

To ensure that an application is properly installed along with all the required components, you need to package all the files and components that make up the application and create setup program

The setup program is used to perform the following tasks

Copy all the necessary files to target computer                                                                                                 store files in appropriate folders                                                                                                                  Create the necessary registry entries.

The best example to explain the deployment is the uploading some files in web-hosting.                           In software industry terms, they do create the exe file by linking all the modules and generating the extract and install file.
