Yes it is.

[Azrael Noor]

what happens when we deploy project in java?
i mean what processes comes under deploying?

like while deploying web application what occurs during deploying?

is difference between deploying and running is that, deploying is <start stage> and run is <running stage>? am i right?

Kindly open term more technically

I always associate the word "installing" with doing things like installing Tomcat or installing a JRE. In the Java world, these are things that ALL Java applications need to run. You can't write a Java web application, for example, without a JVM and a Container. When someone says "deploy", I think of setting up the Java application, (putting the WARs and JARs in the right place, setting up the database, etc). And then when you "run" the application, to me this means it is ready to be used.

So, to me it's like there are three stages: installing the prerequisite Java components, deploying the application, and running/starting the application. I don't know if there's a formal definition anywhere.

Now i have made an application on my side....I run it on my side
Now i am going to client machine and installed an application on his system.
Now some people call that deploying an application on client side.

as you said Deploying is setting up everything which can make application run.
Then what installation is?

What is Client Side Deploying?

I think that whatever term you want to use is a matter of personal preference and that they pretty much mean the same thing. But like I said, to me, "installation" implies installing things that are required across all Java applications, like Tomcat or a JRE. Client Side Deploying means...deploying an application on the client, I guess?

[Azrael Noor]

Now isn't deploying = Installing application on client side..........

Ok Now we make Jar file and we put it on client side and install it...
how we could call it deployment?

or you can say in Client Side deploying

first we install data base and then install java and then make services and make application to use

i.e Installation is one of part/process done before Deploying(in Total)

i think i got it sir...thnx

Yes, that's my take on it.

[Aniruddh Joshi]

don't think you'll face a conflict in these terms when working...

My understanding says:

Deploying: putting something ( or someone to work )
Installing: bringing parts of something together and making it usable.

Putting Someone to work by Bringing something together and making it usable

i am again confused

Isn't Installation done to putting something to work?
like i install a software all files resides at their own place.
now what deploying is?
making shortcut of that software's exe on desktop on client side???

any senior guy of community kindly come in to this discussion,

[Jaikiran Pai]

Don't make it unnecessarily complicated. Those two words may mean one and the same depending on the application or even depending on the context. Anyway, this might help http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_deployment

That can be considered rude by all those who are trying to help. And remember, everyone is equal here when it comes to helping others.

i asked from a engineer about these two terms, he said:

____________

Deployment is bringing software system in use, like we install Database, install main application, make services etc and whole software system is use now.

____________

Installation is done in case of program, so that it can be executed.

Now i am confused again, isn't installation of particular software = deploying of that software?

I've outsmarted people with better credentials and more experience quite a few times in the past. And less experienced users teach me new stuff around here as well.

[Aniruddh Joshi]

Another quote, probably too philosophical.

I think that this is especially true in the comptuer world...because things are changing so fast, it's likely that somone much younger than you will know something that you don't!
