Deployment and Authentication

The SAS Web Infrastructure Platform facet manages both the Web Infrastructure Platform Configuration and the support JAR files for a SAS web application. Handling both enables the facet to keep the configuration features synchronized with the JAR files that support those features.
The SAS Web Infrastructure Platform configuration consists of static files found in \WEB-INF\spring-config, context-param declarations, and filter and servlet declarations and mappings. There is nothing in the configuration that binds the web application to a specific SAS BI installation. This means that the web application can be deployed, unchanged, to any SAS 9.4 BI installation, provided that the application metadata for the web application and any resources the web application depends on are present in that BI installation.
