Software deployment is all of the activities that make a software system available for use.

The general deployment process consists of several interrelated activities with possible transitions between them.

These activities can occur at the producer side or at the consumer side or both.

Because every software system is unique, the precise processes or procedures within each activity can hardly be defined.

Therefore, "deployment" should be interpreted as a general process that has to be customized according to specific requirements or characteristics.

A brief description of each activity will be presented later.

Configuration management (CM) is a systems engineering process for establishing and maintaining consistency of a product's performance, functional, and physical attributes with its requirements, design, and operational information throughout its life.

Cloud computing is a type of Internet-based computing that provides shared computer processing resources and data to computers and other devices on demand.

It is a model for enabling ubiquitous, on-demand access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources (e.g., computer networks, servers, storage, applications and services), which can be rapidly provisioned and released with minimal management effort.

Cloud computing and storage solutions provide users and enterprises with various capabilities to store and process their data in either privately owned, or third-party data centers that may be located far from the user–ranging in distance from across a city to across the world.

Cloud computing relies on sharing of resources to achieve coherence and economy of scale, similar to a utility (like the electricity grid) over an electricity network.

Endpoint security or endpoint protection is a technology that takes an upper hand to protect computer networks that are remotely bridged to users' devices.

The use of laptops, tablets, mobile devices and other wireless gadgets connected with corporate networks creates vulnerability paths for security threats.

Endpoint security attempts to ensure that such devices follow a definite level of compliance and standards.

Security management is the identification of an organization's assets (including information assets), followed by the development, documentation, and implementation of policies and procedures for protecting these assets.
