Zusammenfassung:Software version upgrades are distributed and instantiated in a distributed computing environment. This includes defining the required versions of software as the contents of a software version upgrade kit. The software upgrade kit is written, e.g. as a table of contents or a list, to a database to generate software upgrade kit tables. The tables are used to generate software version upgrade kits. The kits are then used as a source to download copies of the upgrade kits to clients to be upgraded. This enables upgrading the software on the client.
