Managed Package

Upgradeable, namespace-protected package used by ISV partners to distribute apps, often on AppExchange.

Definition

Managed packages carry a namespace prefix, protect intellectual property by hiding Apex source, and support upgrades and license management. Components in a managed package have their own governor limits in many cases and cannot be freely edited by subscribers.

Exam tip

Code in managed packages is hidden from subscribers; you cannot edit it, only configure exposed parts.
