 +
 +===== Discussion =====
 +
 +A Target Environment is the environment selected to receive, execute, host, verify, or operate a build artifact, software release, machine image, infrastructure baseline, or deployment.
 +
 +The Target Environment establishes the applicable technical, security, compliance, connectivity, capacity, and operational constraints for the deployment.
 +
 +A Target Environment may be a development, test, staging, production, recovery, cloud, on-premises, disconnected, or air-gapped environment.
 +
 +The Target Environment influences image selection, infrastructure configuration, dependency availability, compliance requirements, provider capabilities, and deployment procedures.
 +
 +===== Definition =====

 +//environment selected to receive, execute, host, verify, or operate a build artifact, software release, machine image, infrastructure baseline, or deployment//
 +
 +===== Source =====
 +
 +Generalized from systems engineering, software delivery, deployment, and operational-environment usage and specialized for the Crucible architecture and operational model.
 +
 +===== Note =====
 +
 +A Target Environment identifies the destination of a defined build or deployment activity. The same environment may serve as the Target Environment for one activity and as a source or build environment for another activity.
 +
 +A Target Environment may contain one or more [[public:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:e:execution_environment|Execution Environments]].
 +
 +===== Example =====
 +
 +A deployment description identifies an air-gapped enclave as the Target Environment for a hardened Kubernetes platform. Crucible selects the required machine images, infrastructure definitions, dependencies, and transfer process for that environment.
