What is true about component dependencies in the deployment process?

In the context of the deployment process in a platform like Boomi, the statement regarding the main process being the only component that is packaged and deployed is accurate. When you deploy a process in Boomi, the focus is primarily on the main process. This main process identifies and includes the essential components it directly uses.

While sub-processes and other components are indeed critical to the overall function of the main process, they do not necessarily need to be packaged together during deployment. The dependencies of a main process can be resolved at runtime without needing to explicitly package sub-processes or shared components alongside. This allows for greater flexibility in managing separately developed components.

By packaging only the main process, organizations can optimize deployment time and resource management, as they can deploy changes to the main process without needing to repackage and redeploy every dependent component, provided those components are already deployed in the environment. This approach supports a more modular design and eases updates.
