At the completion of this section, you will:
- understand the use of environments in the deployment process
- be able to create/modify an environment
An Environment is a logical name given to a group of servers, applications, and technologies which work together to provide a software solution for the purpose of development, testing, or a production implementation. Typical Environments include, but are not limited to, Development (DEV), System Integration Testing (SIT), User Acceptance Testing (UAT), and Production (PROD).
