I see the installer Service Unit created for my SA project. What is it?
The installer is a service unit used by ChainBuilder ESB to transfer its artifacts from the IDE into the runtime environment. All of ChainBuilder’s special artifacts like message formats and transformations are packaged into the installer service unit. The installer component recreates these files in the runtime environment. The installer is basically a way of using the JBI deployment mechanism to store and transfer files. This way, we do not need a separate copy mechanism like FTP and all the artifacts are packaged together in one service assembly which eliminates problems with stale files.
