What defines the smallest unit of code which can be installed to an instance?

The concept of the smallest unit of code that can be installed to an instance in the Avaloq Integrated Customization Environment is known as a "Change." A Change encapsulates modifications or enhancements to existing functionalities and represents the most granular level at which updates can be deployed. By focusing on Changes, developers can manage specific adjustments without influencing the entire codebase, allowing for more controlled and efficient implementations.

This modular approach is essential in maintaining system stability and ensuring that updates do not introduce unintended consequences. Changes can include anything from minor adjustments to existing functions to entirely new features, highlighting their flexibility and significance in code management.

Understanding the role of a Change in the context of Avaloq ICE is crucial for developers, as it directly impacts how they interact with the system's customization and deployment processes.
