Bound Partition

Generally, partitions are isolated data buckets that do not allow any data exchange. But some projects have multiple partitions (e.g. one per business unit or per region) and may need to share data between these partitions. In such case they can use the Bound Partition feature. 

The data exchange between partitions happens via the external JSON API, like any other call, so that the security barrier between the partitions is kept. These calls need to be authenticated like any other call. In order to not specify this in the logics themselves (and provide an easy way to update credentials), the connection details of a so called 'bound partition' can be saved here. Logics then refer to a given named configuration of such bound partition. It also provides a way to shield credentials from logic writers.
