ApsaraDB RDS:Create tags

Last Updated:Mar 25, 2024

This topic describes how to add tags to one or more ApsaraDB RDS for MySQL instances. You can use tags to classify a large number of RDS instances. Each tag consists of a key and a value. You can use tag keys and values to further classify RDS instances.

Limits

  • You can add up to 20 tags to each RDS instance. Each tag must have a unique key. If two tags have the same key, the tag that is created later overwrites the earlier tag.
  • You can add tags to up to 50 RDS instances at a time.
  • RDS instances in different regions do not share the same tag namespace.
  • After you remove a tag from an RDS instance, ApsaraDB RDS checks whether the tag is added to other RDS instances. If the tag is not added to other RDS instances, ApsaraDB RDS deletes the tag.
