-= Deployment in !QosCosGrid =
-Within !QosCosGrid the QCG-Notification service is used for brokering notification messages about job state changes. All instances of the QCG-Computing services acts as the information ''Producers'' while the QCG-Broker as the ''Consumer''. In most cases it is enough that only one instance of the QCG-Notification is deployed per Administrative Domain (i.e.: not necessary one per Cluster).

+= Integration with QCG services and other interested parties =
+
+QCG-Notification simplifyies cooperation of the two key !QosCosGrid services, i.e. QCG-Broker and QCG-Computing, as well as it offers notification capabilities to the external components. The integration of QCG-Notification with these entities is not problematic, however it meet some restrictions:
+* QCG-Notification has to be able to initiate connections with QCG-Broker.
+* QCG-Computing has to be able to initiate connections with QCG-Notification.
+* QCG-Broker has to be able to initiate connections with QCG-Notification.
+* If XMPP plugin is used, QCG-Notification should be able to connect to the XMPP server.
+* If SMTP plugin is used, QCG-Notification should be able to connect to the SMTP server.
 == QCG-Computing integration ==
 After finishing the QCG-Notification configuration and having QCG-Computing service installed, you must edit the QCG-Computing service configuration file and update the content of the `<ServiceURL>` elements (in `<Module xsi:type="smc:notification_wsa">` section). For e.g. if in the  `PREFIX/etc/qcg-ntfd.xml` one can find  `<Host>example.com<Host>` and `<Port>19005<Port>` the `<ServiceURL>` in `PREFIX/etc/qcg-compd.xml` must be set to `http://example.com:19005/`.
