Background
What Are Domains?
- A LILT Domain defines a working group within your LILT organization. Each Domain specifies the translation environment available to the domain members.
Benefits of Domains
- Simplified User Experience: Users in a Domain can access only the language data and models selected and the translation jobs created within that Domain.
- Enhanced Administrative Control: Administrators easily configure Domains to assign users, and choose the language models, file loaders, and translation preferences.
- Improved Data Privacy and Security: Domains can be configure to restrict access to sensitive data and maintain confidentiality between teams.
Considerations
- When setting up Domains, consider grouping users by departments, projects, or language needs.
- Clearly communicate Domain changes to your team to ensure a smooth transition.
