Script

In systems engineering, end-users are the human beings who use software systems for the purposes for which those systems have been created. The other users include software developers, installers, and/or maintainers. At CNM Cloud, you cannot use anything, but end-user applications unless you are not a developer, installer, or maintainer of CNM Cloud.

Any CNM app is one or more inter-related end-user applications of CNM Cloud that can be delivered as a standalone service. Every app has its landing page that is separate from those of other apps.

Every app powers one CNM Cyber service. If the service has its own name, the name of the app starts with the service name that is followed by the ending -ware. For instance, CNM Wikiware powers CNM Wiki, CNM Tubeware powers CNM Tube, CNM Mailware powers CNM Mail, etc.

CNM Cabin is one of exceptions from that naming rule; it is powered by WorldOpp Middleware.

Finally, CNM Cloud has several apps that haven't been named yet. They should have been installed for experiment purposes only and belong to CNM Next Apps.

CNM App Groups is the successor lectio.
