Environments
Managed Fusion clients have access to multiple environments. The number and type of environments depends on your setup and agreement. Usually, you have one production environment and multiple non-production environments, which you can use to try out new features, test configurations, and stage changes before pushing them into production.
Types of environments
There are five types of enviroments that Lucidworks supports. A typical Managed Fusion client has access to two (development and production) or three (development, stage, and production) environments.Production
This is the environment where production workloads are served. Any changes made are publicly available to end users.Performance
This environment is used for performing load tests against production-equivalent configurations.Stage
This environment is where you can test development changes in a more scalable environment. This is also the environment where work is staged for promotion to the production environment.Quality Assurance
Smaller than stage, this environment is intended for running automated tests.Development
Also known as the sandbox or POC (proof of concept) environment, this is where you can perform application and system development tasks, such as designing, programming, and debugging.Roles and environments
The roles Managed Fusion clients have depend on the type of environment.| Environment | Roles |
|---|---|
| Development, Stage, Performance, Quality Assurance | developer, readonly |
| Production | rules, readonly |
