Set Production Environment

Introduction

Goal

Mark a Bloomreach Cloud environment as production environment to allocate more resources to it.

Background

Bloomreach Cloud allows an environment to be marked as production environment. An environment marked as production environment gets allocated more resources than non-production environments to ensure optimal performance and availability. Also, a production environment is under more scrutiny from a monitoring perspective. (This also implies that you should not play around within a production environment, because Bloomreach could get all kind of false alarms)

Optionally, the domain rules can be automatically reconfigured to point to the new production environment at the same time. This is especially useful when using the blue-green deployment strategy.

Instructions

Log in to Mission Control and navigate to the environments overview.

At the top there is a switch for Production environment:

At the right side, click the SET button and select the new production environment:

If you want your domain rules reconfigured to point to the new production environment, check the Switch domain rules checkbox.

Click on Set. In the confirmation dialog that appears, click on Set once more.

The selected environment is now marked as production environment.
