Multi-Experience Operations enables organizations to efficiently manage multiple digital experiences through a shared codebase approach. This solution allows you to centralize code governance and maintain individual control over each application and site isolation.
The following are the key benefits of multi-experience operations:
Multi-Experience Operations organizes your digital assets in the following hierarchy:
Component | Description | Key characteristics |
---|---|---|
Codebase | Indicates a Git repository with the shared code that powers multiple websites and is the foundation of your Multi-Experience Operations setup. |

Site | Is an individual website that you operate on Cloud Platform and indicates a logical concept that encompasses all stages of development, testing, and production. |
|
Environment | Defines the runtime configuration where sites operate, are owned by the codebase, and can host multiple sites simultaneously. | Environment types: Production environments¶
Non-production environments¶
|
Site instances | Is the concrete deployment of a site in a specific environment and represents the actual running website with its database, files, and domain configuration. |
