Configure environments

Environment-level configuration: settings that differ between Dev, Stage, and Prod, and jobs that run on a schedule. Start with scheduled jobs.

Acquia Search is configured per environment too, each environment pointed at its own index so non-production writes never reach production’s. Acquia Search powered by SearchStax covers the current service and its onboarding, and managing search indexes covers index administration on both generations.

Run scheduled jobsBackground work on Cloud Platform. Scheduled jobs per environment, running Drupal cron via drush the reliable way, and keeping job output out of trouble.

Per-environment settingsThe three configuration surfaces you control per Cloud Platform environment. Platform environment variables, tunable PHP settings, and settings.php overrides.
