PTC Cloud Portal Template
Windchill 12.1.2.8
User Interface Location: PTC Cloud Portal
Description
A development environment is required for all Windchill+ packages to function appropriately. You can build this environment in conjunction with the PTC SaaS conversion partner. Alternatively, PTC SaaS conversion partner can use a virtual machine hosted by PTC on the PTC Cloud Portal. PTC recommends the use of the PTC Cloud Portal because of the following reasons:
• The PTC Cloud Portal comes pre-configured to align with your Windchill+ target environment. The PTC SaaS conversion partner can efficiently build the development environment by using templates. This cost-effective solution saves you the hassle of maintaining a locally-hosted development environment.
• The costs associated with the virtual machines are minimal. You can reduce the costs further by setting an automatic daily shutdown time for the virtual machine. You can easily set the shutoff time on the portal.
• You can request the virtual machine image. Once you open a request, the virtual machine image is made available within an hour for development and usage.
You and the PTC SaaS conversion partner can stay updated on the new features and evolving technical notes by referring to the Release Notes published for each release.
