Oracle Endeca Workbench Integration and Deployment

This section describes the Deployment Template functionality that allows deployments to integrate with Oracle Endeca Workbench.

Oracle Endeca Workbench Integration functions
The Deployment Template scripts include functionality that allows deployments to integrate with Oracle Endeca Workbench. Integration involves three functions: configuration management, process control, and reporting.
Configuration management
The Deployment Template implements a configuration management approach based on a simple business process.
About updating Workbench configuration
One implication of the single-source business process is that configuration does not need to be uploaded to Oracle Endeca Workbench after it is initially uploaded.
About extending Workbench configuration
As with any other component in the template, configuration management may be modified and extended to meet the needs of the project.
About promoting configuration to production
The Deployment Template BaselineUpdate script retrieves Workbench-maintained configuration files and applies them when the update is being processed.
Process control
Different project and deployment needs require varying deployment approaches to meet a project's requirements. The following sections describe a few approaches to deploying Oracle Endeca Workbench and how the Deployment Template can be configured for each approach.
