The Cloud Helpers Blog Series - Sandbox as a Service

Welcome to our blog series, The Cloud Helpers. This series will focus on cloud computing topics and help you understand how the cloud can impact your business today and in the future. Today we are going to focus on one of the most buzzworthy things from 2018 and will impact businesses everywhere in 2019 and beyond: Sandbox as a Service.

What is Sandbox?

A sandbox is a type of software testing environment that enables the isolated execution of software or programs for independent evaluation, monitoring or testing.

In an implementation, a sandbox also may be known as a test server, development server or working directory.

Additionally, the sandbox technique is implemented in information security to evaluate suspicious software or files containing malicious code. Typically, the source code of sandboxed software is not tested prior to isolation, which reduces unexpected behavior.

Cloud Sandbox or Sandbox as a Service

Cloud Sandboxing are self-contained infrastructure environments that can be configured to look exactly like the final target deployment environment, but can be created and run anywhere. For example, developers can create a sandbox that looks like the production environment - from network and hardware to OS versions and software to cloud APIs. They do their development in that sandbox for a short period of time and when they are done they tear down the sandbox.
