Environments in DCDeploy represent isolated spaces for your workloads (e.g., dev, staging, production).
They allow you to test, deploy, and manage applications separately.

Rename an Environment

You can rename an environment to better reflect its purpose.
  1. Navigate to Environment → Settings.
  2. Update the Environment Name field.
  3. Click Save.
⚠️ Renaming does not affect workloads, secrets, or configurations linked to the environment.

Clone an Environment

Easily duplicate an existing environment to create a copy with the same configurations.
  1. Go to Environment → Settings.
  2. Select Clone Environment.
  3. Provide a new name for the cloned environment.
  4. Click Clone.
The cloned environment includes:
  • Workloads and configurations
  • Secrets and variables
  • Networking settings
⚠️ Billing and usage are tracked separately for cloned environments.

Delete an Environment

Environments can be permanently deleted when no longer needed.
  1. Navigate to Environment → Settings.
  2. Scroll to Delete Environment.
  3. Confirm by clicking Delete.
⚠️ This action is irreversible. All workloads, secrets, and associated billing data will be removed.

Best Practices

  • Use cloning to quickly set up staging from production.
  • Keep environment names descriptive (dev2, staging, prod).
  • Always review secrets before cloning to avoid leaking sensitive data.
  • Delete unused environments to optimize costs.
