I agree with Phlip that it is mostly a marketing buzzword with very
little information value.
Nonetheless, as Gauld points out, there are certain vague implications
associated with it. Generally the term implies large architectures and
infrastructures for supporting individual applications. It also implies
reuse of software content at various scales. In IT, that primarily
means shared data storage and associated middleware facilities. But
good luck on finding an substantive definitions of what that might mean
in practice.
I don't think deployment has much to do with it. Deployment is a major
hassle for large applications and infrastructures. But is it also part
of development of small, individual applications. IOW, the only thing
that is changing is the scale of the aggravation.
