Remote Environment Selection Guidelines

Consider these guidelines when you are using the SelectionHint property to specify a remote environment (RE) programmatically:

Avoid hard-coding RE names into applications. Instead, load RE names from a file or database.
Ensure that applications are structured to handle failures when they are attempting to set the SelectionHint property.
Ensure that procedures for adding and configuring REs include a mechanism to update REs referenced in the application code.
Confirm that administrative and operational tasks do not interfere with application code that uses the RE selection. Specifically, review when and how REs are deactivated and deleted.
