A Framework application ready for deployment

You need to have an executable version of your Framework application ready for deployment

Copies of UF* and DF* objects

If you are deploying your application for end-users, the package should not reference any Framework objects with names starting with UF* or DF* because there is a risk these objects may change the next time you install a new version of the VLF.

For more information see Getting Ready for Deployment in VLF-WIN in the Framework Guide.

Establish the minimum supported configuration (MSC)

You need to formally define the minimum configuration your solution will viably support, including:

•      Minimum hardware requirements

•      Minimum software requirements

•      Supported screen resolutions

•      Minimum networking capabilities

•      Maximum data volumes.

A formal MSC will:

•      Inform decisions about the overall solution cost

•      Establish the environment required to test the deployment of the solution or any patch/hotfix made to it.

•      Raise management's awareness of the risk in implementing a "sub-MSC" solution.

For more information refer to Application Performance in the Framework Guide.
