New feature: A business-level application is an administration model that provides the entire definition of an application as it makes sense to the business. It is a WebSphere configuration artifact, similar to a server or cluster, that is stored in WAS configuration repository.

A business-level application can contain artifacts such as...

We might use a business-level application to group related artifacts or to add capability to an existing application.

For example, suppose you want to add capability provided in a JAR to a Java EE application already deployed on a product server. We can add that capability by creating a new business-level application and adding the JAR file and the deployed Java EE application to the business-level application.

Before creating a business-level application, develop the artifacts to go in the application and configure the target server or cluster. Before choosing a deployment target for the application, verify the target version is 7.0 or later.

When creating a business-level application, we can configure the application enough to enable it to run on the server. Later, we can configure the application and its contents further, start or stop the application, and otherwise manage its activity.

The topics in this section describe how to deploy and administer a business-level application or its contents using the admin console. We can also use programming or wsadmin scripting.
