Environment management
Learn how SRE.ai can be used to facilitate environment management
Scenario:
A team periodically refreshes sandboxes from production to reset test environments. After a refresh, specific configurations and data need to be reapplied.
Scenario:
A team refreshes a sandbox from production but needs to obscure sensitive data (PII, financial records) before developers can access it.
Scenario:
After a sandbox refresh or when spinning up a new environment, the team needs consistent test data to validate functionality.
How SRE.ai addresses this:
SRE.ai's Automations allow teams to define post-refresh steps, such as deploying specific metadata, masking data, or seeding test records, that execute automatically when a refresh completes. This eliminates the manual checklist that typically follows a sandbox refresh.
How SRE.ai addresses this:
SRE.ai integrates data masking into sandbox refresh workflows. Teams can configure masking rules that automatically apply after a refresh, replacing sensitive field values with anonymized data. This enables realistic testing environments without exposing production data.
How SRE.ai addresses this:
SRE.ai supports test data seeding as an automation step. Teams can define data sets and configure them to deploy automatically as part of the environment setup. This ensures every environment starts with the baseline data needed for testing, eliminating manual data entry or script execution.
Scenario:
A team needs to move specific records, such as configuration data or reference tables, from one environment to another without a full refresh.
Scenario:
A team works with managed packages from the AppExchange and needs to deploy customizations or extensions that depend on package components.
Scenario:
A developer wants to spin up a temporary environment to test a feature branch in isolation, then tear it down when done.
How SRE.ai addresses this:
SRE.ai enables selective data copy as part of its environment management capabilities. Users can specify which objects and records to move, and the platform handles the extraction, transformation (if needed), and insertion into the target environment.
How SRE.ai addresses this:
SRE.ai supports metadata associated with managed packages. SRE.ai recognizes package namespaces and handles dependencies appropriately during deployment. Teams can track and deploy their customizations without conflicts with the underlying managed package.
How SRE.ai addresses this:
SRE.ai supports ephemeral-environment workflows, where a branch can be deployed to a temporary org for testing. Once testing is complete, the environment can be decommissioned. This enables parallel feature development without environment contention.
