The term sandbox is commonly used for the development of Web services to refer to a mirrored production environment for use by external developers. Typically, a third-party developer will develop and create an application that will use a web service from the sandbox, which is used to allow a third-party team to validate their code before migrating it to the production environment. Microsoft, Google,[citation needed] Amazon.com, Salesforce.com,PayPal, eBayand Yahoo, among others, provide such services.
