Installing WebSphere Commerce Developer
Depending on the size of your organization, there are two options available to you for installing WebSphere Commerce Developer. In a large development organization, you might want to create a common central repository so that you can set up and manage multiple identical development environments. If this option is not appropriate for your organization, you can instead install WebSphere Commerce Developer on each individual workstation.
Setting up multiple identical development environments in an organization
Use the topics in this section to set up and manage multiple identical development environments in an organization.
Installing software onto multiple developer workstations
Installing software using the Enterprise Deployment Utility

The Enterprise Deployment Utility provides extension points that you can leverage to include additional custom deployment steps. The topics in this section provide customization guidelines and instructions.
