The Bottom Line: You should split your Jobs across Environments in dbt Cloud based on their purposes (e.g. Production and Staging/CI) and set one environment as Production. This will improve your CI experience and enable you to use dbt Explorer. Environmental segmentation has always been an important part of the analytics engineering workflow: When developing new models you can process a smaller subset of your data by using target.name or an environment variable.
