The previous section we understood about the sandbox is how do we manage sandbox water all the different
types of sandboxes and finally how do we get into production.
How do we do this and what sort of fish on a regular basis and all these.
No like going forward we'll understand what all the various deployment tools that we have for deployment
of metadata and sales force.
And before we actually do the deployment how do we deliver metadata export.
First of all let's understand the concept of metadata.
What does metadata.
Very precise it is data about data.
Basically it defines a set of competence that includes all aspects of the full stock on functionality
be b the user interface be the workflows be the validation tools be the apex glass beads the triggers
be the shuffles pages and everything.
That's part of the flows dot com functionality everything comes to meditate.
And he and I believe we understand the difference between metadata and data set for example account
outcomes is the object it has got some 10 feeds it has garnered a couple of validation tools it has
got a couple of well littles in that and there are some 5 she goes into account all these forms metadata
of accounts object.
And regarding to data say for example there are some 10000 account records in the system.
So those 10000 account records they fall under the category of data.
So maybe something that stores data.
So this is the difference between metadata and data because it is highly recommended that before we
do a deployment from any order to any ARG we do a metadata export from the source organization and from
the target organization mainly from the target organization say for example like you are doing some
deployment from development to destroy environment say like you are deploying a couple of triggers which
is already existing basically you are making a couple of triggers and you picking a couple of objects
right.
You just say for instance and now that you are deploying the changes from a deaf to nesting environment
so it is highly recommended that you back up all the metadata investing environment because like for
whatever reason you want to do what the changes you glad to have that back in place.
So for this purpose we do metadata export.
So before we deploy we do a metadata export from deep target organization and we do follow this process
of making it export.
We deployed environments are production environment.
There are three methods using which you can do this method and export.
You can basically do it way off we'll start CLIA ordered by I.T. are by a snapshot bar maybe like you
can have other options SMB.
So in this election we are basically going to talk about these three different methods that and you
can do what I did it export plus comes up for a start up CLIA that doesn't come online interface and
in the next lecture we'll be disclosing in detail about the law does this flowchart come see.
How do we do a manual.
My dad and I export how do we do automate admitted it export using our consulate.
And for a snapshot in the next lecture in the next section we have a lecture for a snapshot and then
we'll discuss how do we think I'm edited to export using snapshot and how do we apply the changes using
snapshot.
