This option installs the EJBDeploy tool for pre-EJB 3.0 modules.
Before you deploy applications on the server, you must run the EJBDeploy tool on applications that contain EJB modules that are based on specifications prior to EJB 3.0. Running the EJBDeploy tool generates deployment code for enterprise beans in the application. Beginning with the EJB 3.0 specification, the EJBDeploy tool is no longer required because WebSphere Application Server uses a new feature called "JITDeploy", which automatically generates code when the application starts.
IBM thin clients and resource adapters provide a set of clients and resource adapters for a variety of technologies, such as JAX-WS, JAX-RPC, JAX-RS, XML, EJB, JPA, JMS, and more. An embeddable container runs in a standalone Java Platform, Standard Edition environment. For example, you can use the embeddable EJB container to run enterprise beans outside the application server.

This option installs the embeddable EJB container.
The embeddable EJB container is a Java Archive (JAR) file that you can use to run enterprise beans in a standalone Java Platform, Standard Edition environment. You can run enterprise beans using this embeddable container outside the application server. The embeddable EJB container is a part of the EJB 3.1 specification and is primarily used for unit testing enterprise beans business logic.
This option installs the sample applications for learning and demonstration environments.
The samples include both source code files and integrated enterprise applications that demonstrate some of the latest Java (TM) Platform, Enterprise Edition (Java EE) and WebSphere technologies. The samples are recommended for installation to learning and demonstration environments, such as development environments. However, they are not recommended for installation to production application server environments.
This option allows you to choose between a 32-bit and 64-bit Software Development Kit.
You can create a standalone application server profile or a management profile with an administrative agent server using the Profile Management Tool or the manageprofiles command.
Do not enable this option if you do not have access to the service repository.
