Infrastructure Solutions

It is the process of converting third party installation packages into windows installer packages with the customizations your organizations need. Using windows installer service as a packaging and deployment mechanism can help lower the costs associated with application deployment and maintenance.

  • Installation Programs were created by many different vendors, where the installation behavior was controller by a proprietary script.
  • Problems with traditional setups called Legacy Setups here on) related to corporate environment include Requiring administrative Privileges to perform an installation, requiring an administrator to visit each target system, log in , install the software, make changes to the configuration and log out.
  • There was no common mechanism for customizing a setup or performing a silent install (Installation runs in the background without asking many questions like where to install the application, enter the cd key..).
  • Because each setup program provided its own rules, interactions among two or more applications sometimes caused conflicting results. For example, newer versions of shared files might be replaced with older ones. As a result, applications that required the newer version of the file were not successfully and completely installed. A failed installation could cause other applications not to function.
  • Windows Installer provides consistent and reliable installation for all applications, which prevents newer files from being overwritten by older files.
  • Inter-application conflicts can occur when uninstalling one application removes files shared by other applications on the computer. Windows Installer addresses this problem by keeping track of the resources that Windows Installer-based applications use.
