Workspace

"Workspace" is an independent workspace provided for teams or organizations. Teams perform development, operation, and monitoring of one or more designated applications within a workspace. One or more members are registered in the workspace to collaborate.

Resources necessary for deploying and operating applications are allocated to workspaces. Resource allocation is performed by the platform administrator and targets clusters and image registries registered in the platform.

Cluster Resource Allocation

In Cocktail Cloud, there is a method for allocating cluster resources to workspaces called service mapping. The service map in Cocktail Cloud is an administrative unit that extends namespaces, or more precisely, it can be said that namespaces are allocated to workspaces.

Teams can be allocated service maps, or namespaces, which are isolated, independent spaces within a cluster, typically referred to as virtual clusters. Teams allocated with namespaces are responsible only for deploying and operating applications, while the cluster (infrastructure) is managed by a separate team. This method is suitable when teams are focused on application development and operation.

Image Registry Allocation and Sharing

Each workspace is independently allocated a registry for storing and managing application container images. Teams or applications manage their images and configure automated pipelines accordingly.

In some cases, teams or applications may share common images. In such cases, a shared image registry can be allocated to the workspace. In this scenario, one or more workspaces will use the same shared image registry.

When the accessing account's permissions are set to user-level, it is necessary, and in the case where it is registered with admin privileges, the workspace can be additionally utilized.
