Environment
An Environment serves as the foundation for running an application effectively. Each Golive Environment is uniquely identified by a name and defined by combining an Application type (such as eCommerce, Payment Service, SAP, etc.) and a Category (like Dev, Test, Demo, Staging, Prod, etc.).
Within each Environment, you can expect to find:
Status: Indicates the current state of the Environment, whether it's Up, Down, Running Slowly, Restarting, etc.
Environment Attributes: These encompass various characteristics of the Environment, such as the type of database being used (e.g., Postgresql), the operating system (e.g., Windows), and any other pertinent details.
Dependencies: Describes any reliance the Environment has on other Environments to function correctly.
Tiers: Represents the different layers or segments within the Environment.
Deployment: Refers to the process of releasing a version of the Application within the Environment.
A Deployment consists of:
Deployed Version/Build Number: Identifies the specific version or build of the Application that has been deployed. This can often be linked to an existing Jira Version for tracking purposes.
Deployed Jira Issues: Lists any relevant Jira issues associated with the deployed version.
Deployment Attributes: Includes additional details related to the Deployment, such as Release Notes, Artifact URL, and other relevant information.
