Understand the environments in DigiCert ONE
An environment is an isolated workspace within your DigiCert ONE account. Each environment has its own products, configurations, integrations, and certificate workflows.
Every environment belongs to a specific hosting region. You can create as many environments as your organization needs to support separate business divisions, geographic or data residency requirements, and different operational workflows.
Products, licenses, and configurations in one environment are independent of those in another environment. Enabling the same product in production and demo, two production environments one with United States data residency and another for Europe creates separate environment-specific configurations.

Organizations commonly create multiple environments to separate:
Business divisions or subsidiaries
Geographic regions or data residency requirements
Production, staging, development, or testing workflows
Product configurations that must remain operationally isolated
Different licenses, integrations, and certificate workflows
Users continue to sign in to the same DigiCert® account. Their permissions determine which environments they can access.
ヒント
An environment is not a separate login or customer account. It is an isolated workspace within your existing DigiCert® account.
Environment regions
Each environment is hosted in a specific region.
Production regions
Australia (AU)
India (IN)
Japan (JP)
Netherlands (NL)
Switzerland (CH)
United States (US)
注記
The Oracle Cloud environment is an alternative production deployment in the United States. It is not a separate geographic region and is available only to organizations provisioned to use it.
Demo regions
Japan (JP)
Netherlands (NL)
Switzerland (CH)
United States (US)
Common environment deployment models
You can structure environments according to your operational requirements. Common deployment models include:
Regional environments
You can separate environments to support different geographic regions or data residency requirements.
Example:
US hosted region
EU hosted region
Japan hosted region
Business unit environments
You can separate environments to isolate products and workflows for different parts of the organization.
Example:
Corporate IT
Manufacturing
Retail
Engineering
Operational environments
You can create environments for different stages of your deployment lifecycle, such as:
Production
Staging
Development
Demo or evaluation

└── DigiCert DNSHow many components can an environment have?
Each environment is configured independently. Each environment can include:
Multiple CertCentral instances
One configuration of all other products
The same CertCentral instance can be connected to more than one production environment. This makes CertCentral different from other products which are environment-bound.
