👉 Deployments are a type of virtual machine or server that runs a software application on top of a host system. They are typically used in environments where multiple applications need to run simultaneously, such as cloud computing services, web servers, and data centers. Deployments can be either managed by the user or managed by an administrator. In managed deployments, the administrator is responsible for managing the virtual machine's resources (such as CPU and memory) and ensuring that it runs on top of a specific operating system.
