Application processes tell Deployment Automation what to do when you deploy whole applications.
You design processes using the process editor. In the process editor you drag process steps from a menu of steps onto the design space and configure them immediately. As you place additional steps, you visually define their relationships with one another.
For application processes, you select from a menu of utility steps and other steps such as installing components. These enable you to operate on sets of components associated with the application.
