What is PlatformManager?

The role of PlatformManager is to allow us (anyone with a PlatformManager login) to administer and maintain our unique Pricefx assets like partitions and IntegrationManager instances.

...

Additionally, we can use it to create and manage our IntegrationManager instances and perform common tasks; updating IM details, starting and stopping instances, and deleting our instance). The role of the IntegrationManager instance will be to manage the connection to our partition and provides data transport services that allow us to perform data uploads, and customer integrations.

How is it used within a project?

Once we have defined our user requirements and developed our data model, the next step would be the creation of our partition(s) for our project. The starting point of actually building the Pricefx solution will be the implementation of partitions for dev, qa, and production variants.
