Oracle Exam 1Z0-134 Topic 10 Question 42 Discussion

The primary goals in exporting a deployment configuration are:

* To expose the external resources requirements of the application as null variables in a deployment plan.

Any external resources required by the application are subject to change when the application is deployed to a different environment. For example, the JNDI names of datasources used in your development environment may be different from those used in testing or production. Exposing those JNDI names as variables makes it easy for deployers to use available resources or create required resources when deploying the application.

* To expose additional configurable properties, such as tuning parameters, as variables in a deployment plan.
