Managing environments

An environment is a self-contained space with the required resources (Studio connections, engines, and so on) that allow the execution of tasks and plans in isolation, with no impacts on other environments.

You can navigate between environments by using the Environment filter at the top of the Operations, Management and Processing pages.

From the Environments page, you can see all the existing environments for your account. Each environment contains a number of spaces and a list of engines and engine clusters.

From the details panel of an environment, you can see the information such as its ID, number of allocated Cloud Engines and description in the Overview tab, and the list of spaces in the Spaces tab.

Information noteNote:

When the unified administration is enabled, environments can be synchronized and shared between Qlik Cloud and Talend Cloud. Changes such as creation, updates, deletions, and space assignments are synchronized between both systems.

For more information on how the synchronization of environments works between Qlik Cloud and Talend Cloud, see Synchronizing and managing environments.

Creating an environment

Information noteNote:

When the unified administration is enabled, you can also create synchronized environments from Qlik Cloud. You can create up to 1,000 environments per tenant. Each environment can have up to 1,000 spaces assigned. For more information, see Creating environments.

Before you begin

You must have the Environments - Manage (TMC_ENVIRONMENT_MANAGEMENT) user permission to manage environments.

Procedure

  1. Open the Environments page.
  2. In the Environments tab, click Add Environment.
  3. Enter the name of the environment.
    Information noteNote: If you are planning on using webhooks for scheduling executions, ensure that the environment name does not contain any special characters, only alphanumeric characters and underscores.
  4. Enter the name of the first space in the new environment.
  5. Optional: If you want another user to be the space owner, select their username from the dropdown list.
  6. Optional: Enter or select the number of Cloud Engines you want to allocate to this environment.
    Allocate Cloud Engines to the environment proportionally to the number of concurrent executions you plan to run. Three different tasks or plans can be run in parallel on a Cloud Engine.
  7. Optional: Enter the description of the environment.
  8. Click Save.

Results

The environment is created with the space you specified.

Editing an environment

When the unified administration is enabled, you can also edit synchronized environments from Qlik Cloud. For more information, see Editing environments.
