Concepts

These pages explain how Lizard groups your apps, builds them, and puts each release into production.

For a one-paragraph summary of what Lizard is, see the docs home. To compare platforms that run containers with PaaS, FaaS and IaaS, read container as a service on the blog.

In this section

  • Architecture: the workspace → project → service hierarchy, managed addons, and cross-resource references.
  • Build Pipeline: how source becomes a container image (synthesized Dockerfile, repo Dockerfile, or lizardpack auto-detect) and what triggers a rebuild.
  • Deployments: the build-and-release lifecycle, restarts vs. redeploys, and live config changes.
