===Databases=== A [[database]] clone is a complete and separate copy of a database system that includes the business data, the [[database management system]] software and any other application tiers that make up the environment. Cloning is a different kind of operation to [[Data replication|replicate]] and [[backup]], in that the cloned environment is both fully functional and separate in its own right. Additionally, the cloned environment may be modified at its inception due to configuration changes or data subsetting.
