Defining Applications on Application Diagrams

In Application Designer, you can define, configure, and connect applications that provide or use services. For example, you can specify settings that control application or run-time environment behavior. You can constrain the logical server types that can host an application. You can also validate applications for deployment by creating deployment definitions and validating them against a logical datacenter that represents the run-time environment. After designing applications, you can use them to compose application systems.
