    Software Deployment is one of the most important activity in the software development cycle. Software Deployment is combinations of all activities that make a Software System available for the End Use.

    A Software deployment is the process of moving software (broadly defined) through various preproduction stages to final production. Typically, each stage represents a step of higher criticality, such as quality assurance to production.

    Deployment Automation Tools help organizations improve the speed and quality of software releases, and address the challenges of manual software deployment.

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

    Software Deployment Activities:

    • Release
    • Install and activate
    • Deactivate
    • Uninstall
    • Update
    • Built-in update
    • Version tracking
    • Adapt

    For Proper Deployment, Project needs a good deployment tool. So below we have compiled publicly available sources from around the world that present views on Deployment Automation Tools.
