An organization is a secure area within the Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services repository that stores your licenses, user accounts, data integration assets such as mappings and tasks, and information about jobs and security. You might have access to one or more organizations.
By default, the organization that you create when you start your free trial is a production organization.
Based on your licenses, you might also have access to the following organizations:
Sub-organizations
If you have the appropriate license, administrators in the production organization can create one or more sub-organizations. Sub-organizations are child organizations of the production organization. They are automatically linked to the parent organization.
Each sub-organization has its own set of assets, connections, runtime environments, and users. However, the parent organization can share runtime environments and add-on connectors with a sub-organization. Administrators in the parent organization can switch to a sub-organization unless the sub-organization forbids this.
You cannot create any other organizations from a sub-organization.
Additional production organizations and sandbox organizations
If you have the appropriate license, administrators in the production organization can create additional production organizations and sandbox organizations.
These organizations are automatically linked to the production organization for IPU usage, but they are otherwise completely independent organizations. They do not share assets, connections, runtime environments, or users with the production organization. Administrators in the production organization cannot switch into an additional production organization or a sandbox organization.
If the production organization has the license to create sub-organizations, administrators in the additional production organizations and sandbox organizations can create sub-organizations for their organizations.
The administrator of an organization maintains the organization and its sub-organizations. Log in to Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services as an administrator to set up your organization, create and manage schedules, and monitor activities related to assets and security.
