Integration deployment
Learn about server groups, servers, packages and deployment procedures as well as configuration variables.
- Server groups
  Server groups define collections of servers for which different values of configuration variables might be desired.
- Servers
  Server definitions specify the location and access method for instances of Link runtime. Packages can be deployed to the instances of the Link runtime by specifying which server definition to deploy.
- Packages
  A package defines a set of maps and flows to be collectively built and deployed to a server.
- Deployment
  Deploying a package copies it to one or more Link runtime environments. Any maps within the package are compiled during the deployment process
- Configuration variables
  A configuration variable defines an alias that resolves at run time to a value that is specific to a deployment environment. A deployment environment is represented by a server group. By associating the values of a configuration variable with different server groups, you can run the same map or flow in different environments, servers, and platforms without changing the map or flow.

Deployment

Deploying a package copies it to one or more Link runtime environments. Any maps within the package are compiled during the deployment process

The package will either be copied, sent by FTP, or by a REST API call, depending on the type of server being accessed.

When a package is deployed, any maps or flows that have a URL defined will be accessible using that URL. Thw Swagger page of the Link runtime is updated to include details of the endpoint.
