vCloud Deployment Updater - Progress Update
-----------------------------------------------------
Writing software is the easy part, packaging and deploying the software is always the most challenging part.
Well, this is where VCloud Development Studio will change all this.
After developing our own internal software and running it across multiple data centre platforms, we developed some software internally to help deploy our software. So naturally we thought this must be an issue for all software development companies.
With our new deployment updater tool, you can upload your program once compiled/built, then with the development tool, you start setting up the rules for deployment, ie:
1. program install location,
2. additional files to be downloaded,
3. if a database(s) needs to be updated,
4. run any powershell scripts, or
5. update/merge the registry.
With our custom server, built in the cloud, it will also allow you to manage multiple software packages, then all you need to deploy is our software tool in front of yours, to manage patching your software. Every time the icon is clicked, the deployment tool checks the cloud server for any updates, and executes accordingly.
It's really that simple!
Below is our new upload interface, now with Import from the previous build, CSV and Excel spreadsheet to make managing your patch project easier.
