    Patent number: 7519964
    Abstract: A system and method for application deployment in a server cluster from a central domain. The method may include assembling a set of source code and related resource files on an administration server coupled to an application repository. The method may also include compiling the set of source code and related resource files into an application and storing the application in the application repository. The application may then be deployed onto a first subset of servers in a cluster of servers and executed on the subset of servers. In one embodiment, the method may further include storing a different version of the application in the application repository and deploying the different version of the application onto a second subset of servers separate from the first subset of servers. The different version of the application may then be executed on the second subset of servers.
