Methods and apparatus for limiting data transferred over the network by interpreting part of the data as a metaproperty

Abstract:

Methods and apparatus to customize deployment using metaproperties are disclosed. An example deployment metaproperty manager can generate a first metaproperty payload including an application component metaproperty of an application component that provides a logical template of an application. A deployment event broker can reply-back to the deployment metaproperty manager with a second metaproperty payload that includes a processed application component metaproperty.
