Platform Lifecycle¶

The platform is a product. Workload teams join it, use it, and eventually leave it, while the platform itself keeps changing underneath them. This section covers that lifecycle from the workload team's side: how to get started, how to get machine identities, how to leave cleanly, and how platform changes reach you.

Workload Onboarding: from "we need a subscription" to a first deployment.
Workload Identity Vending: creating machine identities for workloads through Lane B, within guardrails.
Subscription Decommissioning: retiring a subscription without losing data or leaving orphaned access.
Platform Versioning and Upgrades: how modules are released, and how workloads take up changes.
