How Brainpod works

Brainpod represents application infrastructure as resources within an isolated pod. Changes are prepared in a draft revision and do not affect the running environment until you deploy them.

  1. Define the apps, routes, storage, and data services your workload requires.
  2. Review the complete draft revision before it affects production.
  3. Deploy the revision and monitor resource status and application events.
  4. Create a new draft for the next change or restore an earlier revision when required.
