Explanation:
A clone system is a replica of a live/production system used for activites such as performance testing. The test & development systems are typically used for development and for technical and functional proving, e.g. of software upgrades or for user acceptance.

neutral  Joost Elshoff (X): but how do you resolve the DREA/DRAE thing... the reference was already made in the inverted language pair reference I posted

  -> In Spanish, I recall it meaning like 'Desarrollo, Rendimiento, Ensayo e Actualización. I came across the term at La Caixa, where the Catalan translation produced the same abbreviation. I think my memory is serving me well.
neutral  philgoddard: You haven't explained what DREA stands for.
