Managing Application Versions
The information system of an enterprise is in constant evolution; new applications may be integrated, but in most cases modifications to the IS consist of adapting existing applications. It is therefore important to be able to monitor evolutions of these applications and to identify differences between each version.
MEGA Architecture enables management of application versions and more complex architectures:
• based on a modeling technique: variation, and
• by locking the application.
If you create a version of an application, the application is automatically locked.
To modify the application, you must create a new version or unlock the application.
To use variations (and consequently, versions), you must select user option Business Process and Architecture Modeling > Activate Variations.
For more details on variations, see the MEGA Common Features guide, "Handling Repository Objects", "Object Variations".
