I am now having major confusion over the sandbox as a function and a role in CRM on-prem
My Understanding:
- When I initially read documentation, it seemed like the sandbox role was best placed on it's own server in the production cluster so that it could create an isolation for any code that we wrote and ran in production as well as any plug-ins we imported as a solution, separate from the built-in code.
- When I read about Google chrome running as a sandbox in windows, it is a security feature, and creates isolation. (this gives you insight to my understanding of what a "sandbox" does in secure computing)
What we have:
- A production D365 (ver 8.2) cluster where a sandbox server has the sandbox role on it.
- A development D365 server configured as "Full Server" on it (but I don't think the sandbox role is on it)
Why I'm confused:
- All youtube videos about "sandbox" in D365 online seems to refer to a dev environment, not a production environment
- If it's only for dev, when even have a server/role and just instead create a new dev cluster or server?
- What does the freaking Sandbox Processing Server actually do?
- What role does the Sandbox Server/Role play in security best practices on a modularized CRM cluster where all roles are broken out to their own servers?
