Advanced Tools
Distributed System Design Tools
Use the Distributed System Design tools to design,
evaluate, and implement application systems
Application Design project template to define and
connect underlying applications for designing
systems
♦
♦
Application Designer to visually define service-
oriented applications and generate code
♦
♦
Bind Application to identify that an application will
be deployed on a particular server in the logical
datacenter diagram
♦
♦
Configure Connections to External Databases on the
application diagram to visualize, document, connect
them to applications that reference them, and
include them as part of an application system design
♦
♦
Conform .NET Web Service Endpoints to WSDL Files
to conform operation signatures to those described
in the WSDL file
♦
♦
Custom Prototypes enable you to create custom
prototypes from applications, logical servers, zones,
and endpoints already defined on their respective
diagrams or install those created by other users
♦
♦
Define Deployment dialog box to create a
deployment diagram using an application diagram, or
system diagram
♦
♦
Deployment Designer to validate application designs
against a target datacenter and identify issues before
deployment begins
♦
♦
Generate Deployment Report to assist you in
creating an installation script from structured XML
information in the report
♦
♦
Implement Application from application diagrams to
create the appropriate project for that application
and can include code or class files, configuration files,
and any other needed resources
♦
♦
Logical Datacenter Design project template to design
a logical datacenter for validating system deployment
♦
♦
Logical Datacenter Designer to visualize the logical
structure of datacenters, specify operational policies
and validate applications before deployment
♦
♦
Reverse Engineer Projects in Existing Solutions
enable you to reverse-engineer projects whose
application types can be visualized on an application
diagram
