Definitions

  • Pre-Release: This is a three- or four-week period prior to the general availability of the next major release. During this period, customers can explore the next features in a vault based on their production vault configurations.
  • PODs: POD stands for Point of Delivery. In simple terms, think of them as the Vault application servers where each vault is hosted. To confirm your POD, you can log into your vault as an administrator and navigate to Admin > Settings > General Settings, and look at the POD field.
