Abstract
The methods, systems, data structures and computer program products for deploying software components are provided, including deploying components in an enterprise environment. Dependency relationships among components to be deployed arc determined. Those components which are not dependent upon any other component may be installed first and substantially in parallel. Components which are dependent only upon the first installed components are next installed, substantially in parallel. Installation thus progresses until all components have been installed. By installing in parallel those components having a similar level of dependency, rather than installing all components sequentially, the deployment is more efficient and requires less time to complete.
