Hot Deploying Artifacts

Hot deployment is the process of dynamically deploying your synapse artifacts (XML), dataservices(DBS), carbon applications (CAR), etc., in your Micro Integrator. That is, it is not required to restart the server for the artifact deployment to be effective.

Hot deployment is useful for testing the integration artifacts in a VM environment. With hot deployment, it is not required to restart the server each time you deploy an artifact and the testing time will be shorter and efficient. Hence, hot deployment is enabled by default in the Micro Integrator distribution. However, this feature is disabled in the base Docker image of the Micro Integrator to honor the immutable nature of container environments.

Disabling hot deployment

Open the deployment.toml file from the <MI_HOME>/conf directory and set hot_deployment property to false.

[server]
hot_deployment = false
