If you developed a publisher as part of your Diffusion™ solution, you must deploy the publisher on the Diffusion server for it to run.

All publishers that run on the Diffusion server must be defined in the Publishers.xml configuration file located in the etc directory

If a publisher is defined in the Diffusion server configuration, you can deploy it on the Diffusion server by using either classic deployment or hot deployment. Classic deployment is deploying a publisher to a stopped Diffusion server. The publisher then starts when the Diffusion server starts. Hot deployment is deploying a publisher to a running Diffusion server.
