Summary

In this chapter, we have learned how to deploy APEX applications to another APEX instance. We have seen how Supporting Objects can be used to create a Packaged Application. Packaged Applications simplify our installation as we only have one file to deploy, which contains both our application and database changes. We have also learned how to export the application into a file and import the file in another APEX instance. The export and import functions in APEX make it very simple and quick to deploy our applications to another APEX instance.

In the next chapter, we will look at the APEX runtime environment.
