# Introduction / Usage Scenarios
|
|
|
The **deployment diagram** is used to describe deployment relationships (often only called deployments) between *DeploymentArtifacts* and *DeploymentTargets*, i.e. which target deploys which artifact. We distinguish *instance* and *type* level deployment relationships (p. 694, first paragraph).

At instance level, the deployment is shown for actual instances of targets and artifacts. Thus one uses the common notation *"instance : type"* (analogous to the notation of the [sequence diagram](https://git.informatik.uni-kiel.de/ag-se/teaching-public/wikis/uml/sequence-diagram)) for nodes and for example a .jar file for artifacts.

|
|
The type level deployment illustrates relationships between "kinds" or types of targets and artifacts. Naming of targets and artifacts is done by using the type as name.

The introduced (abstract) classes *DeploymentArtifact* and *DeploymentTarget* (elements of the meta model) are extended by the classes *Node* and *Artifact*. In terms of modeling particular deployment diagrams (as shown below), we are mostly talking about *Nodes*, *Artifacts* and *CommunicationPaths* (associations between nodes and artifacts for exchanging signals and messages). The node class is once more extended by *devices* and *executionEnvironments*. The device stereotype is used ... TODO

The introduced (abstract) classes *DeploymentArtifact* and *DeploymentTarget* (elements of the meta model) are extended by *Node* and *Artifact* respectively. In terms of modeling particular deployment diagrams (as shown below), we are mostly talking about *Nodes*, *Artifacts* and *CommunicationPaths* (associations between *Nodes* and *Artifacts* for exchanging signals and messages). The *Node* class is once more extended by *Devices* and *ExecutionEnvironments*. The *Device* stereotype is used for physical machines such as a server upon which *Artifacts* may be deployed. An *ExecutionEnvironment* is as its name implies an execution (typically software) environment for deploying *Components* in the form of the previously mentioned *Artifacts* (p. 698, second paragraph).

# Obligations for the lectures and the final exam in "Softwaretechnik" (Tips for Modeling)
|
|
|
- Nur type level
|
|
|
- ExecutionEnvironment kann sehr fein granular geschachtelt werden indem neue Stereotypen dafür genutzt werden. In unserem Kontext nicht weiter notwendig.
|
|
|
- Wann Kommunikationspfad zwischen Env - Device, Device - Device, Env - Env?
|
|
|
- Komponenten werden als manifestierende Artefakte umgesetzt - Namenskonvention für Komponente -> Artefakt
