Release 10.1A: OpenEdge Deployment:
WebClient Applications

> ## Using IntelliStream and non-IntelliStream technologies together

> For the initial download and for updates, the application deployer can use IntelliStream, an external installer, or a combination of the two.

> The application deployer might use IntelliStream for initial downloads and updates:

> - To minimize the time required for downloads.

> - To avoid having to write an InstallShield script, which can be complicated.

> - To avoid having to buy the InstallShield product.

> The application deployer might use an external installer for initial downloads and updates if InstallShield is already being used, if minimizing downloading time is not critical, or if there are specific installation requirements that IntelliStream cannot handle.

> The application deployer might combine the two techniques. For example, an initial download might use an external installer, while updates might use IntelliStream, because it minimizes the number of files that need to be downloaded.
