What is a "Module" in the context of AVEVA Application Server?

In the context of AVEVA Application Server, a "Module" is defined as a standalone part of the application that contains specific functionalities. This allows developers and users to organize and encapsulate different parts of the application effectively. Each module can handle a particular set of tasks or features independent from others, which promotes modular design and enhances maintainability and scalability within the application.

By using modules, the development process becomes more efficient, as different teams can work on different modules without interfering with one another. This also allows for easier updates and modifications to specific functionalities without impacting the entire application. Furthermore, modules can be reused across different applications or projects, leading to increased efficiency and reducing redundancy.

The other choices don't appropriately capture the essence of what a module represents in the AVEVA Application Server context. Although they relate to various aspects of data management or application performance, they do not embody the concept of a module's functionality and independence as effectively as the chosen option does.
