The ServiceNow®
Domain Separation application enables you to separate data, processes, and administrative tasks into logically defined domains. Domain Separation is a new application in the Zurich release.

## Domain Separation highlights for the Zurich release {#domain-separation-rn__domain-separation-rn-highlights}

* Changes to the domain table are queued sequentially and batched into a single background job. This helps simplify domain table updates.
* Domain Admins can delete by domain to efficiently manage domains and reduce storage overhead.
