We can simply archive and compress the entire directory for distributing to other
systems. See Example 4-36.

Deploying the sample Python application
The deployment process for the DB2 Python application involves transfer of the
deployment package to the target system, uncompressing/extracting files in the
package, and then executing the deployment script. See Example 4-37 for the
steps involved in DB2 Python application deployment.
