Glossary
Plain-language definitions of the terms you'll meet across the dashboard.
Terms
| Term | What it means |
|---|---|
| Project | The top-level container for one deployment effort. Holds environments, picks a plan, and connects a Git repository and domain provider. |
| Environment | A stage within a project — Production, Staging, or Development. Each runs its own apps on a server. |
| App | A single Odoo instance (a version + edition + branch) deployed in an environment. |
| Namespace / workspace | Your company's isolated tenancy on the platform. The Sandbox is a shared, read-only demo namespace for trying things out. |
| Seat pool | The number of users your company can have. It's MAX(plan seats across projects) + purchased seat add-ons — see Billing. |
| Add-on | A line-item bought independently of a plan — e.g. Additional Seats or White Label. |
| Installment | One billing cycle for a company. Subscription lines attach to the open installment; at period end it locks and an invoice is generated. |
| White label | An add-on that replaces CloudWady branding with your own — logo (light + dark), favicon, colours, title, and a website URL the sidebar logo links to. |
| Release | A recorded successful build of an app, identified by a build fingerprint. You can switch or roll back to a previous release from the app's Releases tab. |
| Workflow | An orchestrated operation (deploy, update, backup, restore…) made of steps whose live output streams to the dashboard. |
| Runner | One execution of an automation job on a server. The Runners screens show their status and output. |
| Workflow health / gate | The recent success rate of workflows. Below Gate flags that the rate dropped under the platform threshold — an early-warning signal. |
| Registry | A connected Git repository (via the GitHub App) that an app's branch tracks for deployments. |
| Storage box | Remote storage (SFTP / object storage) where backups are uploaded and retained. |
| Installer | A side-service deployed on a server (Nginx, Grafana, Prometheus, Loki, pgAdmin…). Some are mandatory; others are optional — see Marketplace apps. |
| Reconciliation | The platform re-checking that what's recorded matches what's actually running on your servers, and surfacing any drift. |
