What Is Global Deployment?
Siebel eBusiness Applications are designed to meet the needs of customers operating in a global environment. These needs might include:
- Functioning simultaneously in multiple regions, using multiple languages
- Viewing data in local time and number formats
- Managing global time differences (optional)
- Supporting local business models (optional)
- Meeting local regulations
- Allowing each individual to work in a local language environment
A single installation of a Siebel application can run in more than one country simultaneously, even though people in these countries may speak different languages. This is called concurrent multiple language support, which means that the text in the user interface and the entries in picklists can be displayed to multiple users in any of the languages defined in your Siebel application. Global deployment encompasses all of the above and generally means a deployment that goes beyond a single instance in a single language.
