In the applications section, you will see all the applications that you have built and the dependent applications. you can even create a new application from the Lifetime tool. in the environments section, you will see all the environments that you are using for the development. in the paid environment you could not have a home page for the Lifetime.

For the deployment, you need to have a valid premium or paid plan of OutSystems. without the paid plan you can’t deploy your application.

It is a unified interface feature so you can register and manage new users. you can manage access control, and security policies, define roles, grant access, and revoke the roles over the users of your application or your whole environment. you can also define access to the services and applications.

You can create a group of users or teams and authentication mode that users need to follow for registration or log in like the OutSystems built-in authentication or external authentication provider plan and see the list of users with all the features.

Infrastructure

This feature or option is only available if you have a paid plan. in this section, you see your development and your production environment. you can check your environment’s health, and configure the environment like Email configuration, SEO URLs, Licensing, etc.

You can also check security settings like enabling HTTP strict transport security, forcing HTTPS for screens in web applications, forcing HTTPS for exposed integration in web applications, setting cookies, and enabling the content security policy.

Environments

This option may not be available in the paid version of OutSystems. because it was replaced by Infrastructure. In the Environments section, you can see your development or deployment environment and servers. you can also check for the database and memory used by the application. monitor the logs for an application.

Analytics

Analytics is used to get real performance insights into an application. it measures exactly the performance users are experiencing when using the applications, from the moment they click until the moment they can work on the result.

You can find out the degrading and upgrading in the performance of an application. using analytics one can be constantly aware of the system’s performance status, and its evolution through time.
