Exploded Deployment The WAR, EAR, MC beans and SAR deployment packages are really just JAR files with special XML deployment descriptors in directories like META-INF and WEB-INF. JBoss Enterprise Application Platform allows you to deploy those archives as expanded directories instead of JAR files. That allows you to make changes to web pages etc on the fly without re-deploying the entire application.
