Developer Edition (often referred to as a "DE org") is a fully-featured development environment with limits on data and users. Developer Edition is used for:

Trailhead - Salesforce's free and fun online learning tool requires Developer Edition.
Development and Testing - If you don't have a sandbox (a copy of your Salesforce production organization), you can use Developer Edition to isolate development and testing.

ISVs - Independent Software Vendors use DE orgs to create managed packages, which may then be released as apps on the AppExchange.

Developer Previews - Sometimes we release new functionality to Developer Edition before other editions, so you can practice with it.

Fun - You can have more than one Developer Edition, so use one whenever you want to mess around and try something new.

[#Blogged] Different Types Of Sandboxes

Sandboxes :

A sandbox is a replica of an engenderment environment utilized for a variety of purposes, commonly including testing and development. Here's how it works: When you engender or refresh (essentially effaces and reconstitutes a sandbox utilizing the same name) a sandbox, a facsimile of the engenderment environment at that point in time is made.

Different types of Sandboxes 

FullSandbox - Plenarily testing changes against authentic data afore promoting to engenderment.  This may include utilizer acceptance testing.  All changes must go through this sandbox.  If multiple admins/developers are working on overlapping areas, this is the place where changes get merged.  Force.com IDE can be habituated to compare changes by separate developers of the same apex code.
Full sandboxes have the same storage limit as your production organization.Once you refresh the Full Copy Sandbox then to refresh it one more time you have to wait for 29 Days.

 Partial Data Sandbox - This is an incipient sandbox type and I am not quite sure what the intention was.  Probably just a more frugal alternative to a full sandbox.  If you have a full sandbox, then partial data sandbox sounds like a good place for utilizer training for incipient features, incipient employees, etc.  Having authentic data can authentically avail with training.  Additionally, possibly a place to work on integration changes since it can hold quite remotely of authentic data.
Partial Data sandboxes have a 5 GB storage limit.
Once you refresh the Partial Data Sandbox then to refresh it one more time you have to wait for 5 Days.

Developer - A place to work through solutions to incipient requisites.  The main conception is to keep arbitrary experimentation out of the full sandbox.  It there are multiple admins/developers, each one should get their own so that they don't trample on each others work (until they deploy to the full sandbox).

Developer sandboxes have a 200 MB storage limit.

Once you refresh the Developer Sandbox then to refresh it one more time you have to wait for 1 Day.

Developer Pro - The main distinction between this and Developer is the amount of data that can be stored.  It additionally prehends some product data from engenderment.  If those two things are paramount, utilize this one.  Otherwise, it's interchangeble with Developer.

Developer Pro sandboxes have a 1 GB storage limit.

Once you refresh the Developer Pro Sandbox then to refresh it one more time you have to wait for 1 Day.

[#Blogged]Time To Upvote -Series (Part 1)

Here we have some idea's which need to be upvoted :

Idea 1 
Make the Manage External User button available in lightning

Currently the Manage External User button and the nested buttons it hosts are not available in the lightning user interface, as a result users have to switch between lightning and salesforce classic to access the functionality, another drawback to lightning as having to toggle back and forth between two different interfaces undermines the value of lightning.  Please make the manage external user button and the nested buttons it hosts available in lightning!

Idea 2
Choose Who To Send Flow Fault emails and Process Builder Error Emails to
The notifications currently go to the user who built the flow or process builder.
I am currently in a situation where the original user who created the flows in Sandbox and deployed them is no longer active. I therefore must change his email in order to receive the error messages on existing flows.

Idea 3 

Increase the limit on the number of reports a user can subscribe to

The new report subscription feature is really nice, but only being able to subscribe to 5 reports is not helpful.  Most users who want to subscribe to reports want to do this for at least 10 - 15 reports.  I'm not sure why the limit is hard-coded to be 5 but having a higher limit (like 25?) would be much appreciated.

Idea 4 

Process Builder: Error messages

Process Builder works great, but when there is a validation error or any other error, it doesn't provide the much information to user and user will never know how to resolve that issue.

Admin gets an email for this exception with the proper message, but if we can improve the error messages for the end user also, that would be great.
