Core concepts
Workspaces and environments
Separate ownership, configuration, credentials, and delivery history across Arcwell environments.
Workspace boundary
A workspace is the top-level ownership boundary in Arcwell. Schemas, routes, streams, access keys, and audit records never cross it.
Environments
| Environment | Purpose | Data policy |
|---|---|---|
| local | Developer feedback | Ephemeral |
| preview | Change validation | Synthetic only |
| production | Customer workloads | Retained by policy |
