Open Stack

In other words, can a new component that is being to an environment have dependency on the existing ones?
If so, how does that defined?

For example, going back to your example of a multi-tier application, if I initially have PostgreDB in my environment, and later add Tomcat, how do I tell Tomcat the PostgreDB connection info? Would it be manually done through component parameters? Or there are other dynamic ways of discovering it?

Thanks.
