Environments

Environments are currently supported only for Event Portal 2.0.

You can create environments in PubSub+ Cloud to represent the operational environments within your organization. For example, you may want to have multiple development environments, a testing environment, a staging environment, and a production environment. You should be aware of these considerations for using environments:

  • You create environments at the PubSub+ Cloud account level.
  • You must have an Administrator role to create, modify, or delete environments.
  • Each PubSub+ Cloud account must have at least one environment and can have up to 50 environments.
  • Each environment must have a unique name.
  • PubSub+ Cloud provides a default environment for each account. You can update and use the default environment or you can delete it if you have at least one other environment.

Creating an Environment

You must be an administrator to create environments. After you create an environment, Event Portal users can add modeled event meshes to the environment.

To create an environment, perform these steps:

  1. Log in to the PubSub+ Cloud Console. The URL to access the Cloud Console differs based on your authentication scheme. For more information, see Logging into the PubSub+ Cloud Console.
  2. On the navigation bar, select User & Account > Environments.
  3. Click Create Environment.
  4. In the Create Environment dialog box, enter an Environment name.
  5. (Optional) Enter a Description for the environment.
  6. Click Create.

Updating an Environment

Users with the Administrator role can change the name or description of any environment. For more information about adding and updating modeled event meshes in an environment, see Designing Modeled Event Meshes.

To update an environment, perform these steps:

  1. On the navigation bar, select User & Account > Environments.
  2. In the list of environments, click More Actionsfor the environment that you want to update and select Edit.
  3. Update the and description as necessary, the click Save.

Deleting an Environment

Users with the Administrator role can delete any environment as long as at least one other environment exists. When you delete an environment, you also delete all of the modeled event meshes in the environment, but application versions and associated objects in the modeled event mesh are not deleted from their application domains in Event Portal.

To delete an environment, perform these steps:

  1. On the navigation bar, select User & Account > Environments.
  2. In the list of environments, click More Actions for the environment that you want to delete and select Delete.
  3. Confirm that you want to delete the environment and all of the modeled event meshes it contains.
  4. Click Delete.
