Informatica Deployment Groups, simply put, act as containers that allow smart grouping of objects to facilitate the deployment between different folders, repositories and environments.
They are objects themselves and they contain specific versioned objects selected for deployment from different source folders.
Informatica Deployment Groups can contain folders, mappings, mapplets, reusable transformations, sources, targets, workflows, sessions and tasks and can help transfer these objects into multiple folders across repositories in different domains. The objects contained within a Deployment Group are versioned so the recipient repository will have to be versioned too.
