MolternCreate a preview environment
Guides

Give test work its own place to run.

Separate preview workloads and configuration from the application people already depend on.

A useful next step

Choose an environment group and create a preview environment before deploying test workloads. Connect appropriate test services and variables; do not assume production data has been copied. Review resource limits and remove work that no longer needs to run.

Put it into practice

Create a preview environment

01

Choose the environment boundary

Organize development, preview, staging and production work explicitly. Review the variables and connected services for each environment rather than assuming they share data.

02

Connect and test the data path

Put the service in the appropriate environment and use explicit private connections where supported. Keep server credentials out of browser code and source control.

03

Review limits and operating costs

Check the workspace plan, workload limits, CPU, memory and storage requirements. Review usage and applicable guardrails before adding or resizing resources.

Detailed instructions are maintained in the product documentation.

Questions before you start

Does a preview copy production data?

Do not assume it does. Configure appropriate test services and verify which data and variables the preview can access.

Who owns backups and recovery?

Name an owner and review the service-specific persistence and recovery instructions before relying on its data.

Are program benefits or resource limits automatic?

Plans and eligibility differ. Use the pricing and billing pages for current terms; program benefits require individual confirmation.
