Additional production organizations and sandbox organizations

If your organization has the appropriate license, you can create additional production organizations and sandbox organizations from the production organization. Create these organizations when you need separate organizations for different assets and users, but you want to manage all IPU usage from the production organization. Additional production organizations and sandbox organizations are automatically linked to the production organization.

You can create the following types of organizations:

Additional production organization: This is a separate production organization. It functions in the same way as the production organization, except that you cannot create additional production organizations or sandbox organizations from an additional production organization.
Sandbox organization: This is an organization that is typically used for asset development and testing. There is no difference in functionality between a sandbox organization and an additional production organization.

Additional production organizations and sandbox organizations are completely independent of the production organization and each other. They do not share assets, connections, runtime environments, or users. However, you can export and import assets between them.

The additional production organizations and sandbox organizations that you create inherit all licenses and editions from the production organization. If the production organization has the license to create sub-organizations, administrators in the additional production organizations and sandbox organizations can create sub-organizations for their organizations.

Additional production organizations and sandbox organizations appear on the

Additional Organizations

tab of the

Organization

page in the production organization. The

Additional Organizations

tab is shown in the following image:

When you create an additional production organization or a sandbox organization, you must enter the organization name and a user name for the organization administrator. You can log in to the new organization using this user account and add other users and assets.

After you create an additional production organization or a sandbox organization, you cannot disable or delete it, and you cannot unlink it from the production organization. If you need to do this, contact Informatica Global Customer Support.

Hi, asking from CI/CD perspective. Is CI/CD code deployment supported by this sandbox organization? how is this approach is different with multiple POD explained in the Sub-organizations example? Can you please advise which one is better?

Hi Danny Tanoto,

Thanks so much for reaching out! We're forwarding your question to our development team and will get back to you shortly.

Hi Danny Tanoto,

We've confirmed with our project management team that, in general, you should consider using sub-organizations for departments within an enterprise. You can use independent additional organizations that are linked to the primary organization for your development, QA, and production environments.

If you have further questions about this, please reach out to your Informatica Customer Success Manager, who can make specific recommendations based on your use case.
