Abstract

An objective of the present invention is to carry out a decentralized deployment of components even for construction of a decentralized system that has dependencies among the components in different processing devices.
A script generating unit ( 130 ) of a deployment device ( 100 ) generates a script for each of a plurality of processing devices ( 200 ) on the basis of logical configuration information ( 111 ) and physical configuration information ( 121 ). The logical configuration information ( 111 ) indicates dependencies among software components composing a system. The physical configuration information ( 121 ) indicates a processing device ( 200 ) to which each of the software components composing the system is deployed. In the script ( 131 ), a process to deploy each software component deployed to the processing device ( 200 ) and a process to deploy a synchronization module are described together with an execution sequence. The synchronization module synchronizes processing of the script ( 131 ) with a synchronization module deployed to another processing device ( 200 ).
