Tags, consisting of a tag key and a tag value, identify your cloud resources. Use tags to categorize, search for, and aggregate resources to simplify resource management. This topic describes how to manage tags in the Realtime Compute for Apache Flink console.
Background information
You can create and assign tags to cloud resources for several purposes:
-
Find resources by using tags
Assign tags to your resources to quickly find them by using the tag console or an API. For more information, see Find resources by using tags.
-
Use tags for cost allocation
Plan tags for your resources based on organizational or business dimensions, such as region, department, environment, or project. You can then use Alibaba Cloud's cost analysis and split bill features for cost allocation.
-
Automate O&M by using tags
Assign different tags to different environments (such as production or test), operating systems (such as Windows Server or Linux), or client platforms (such as iOS or Android). Then, create a template in CloudOps Orchestration Service and run the template to automate O&M tasks in batches. For more information, see Automate O&M by using tags.
-
Control resource access by using tags
With Resource Access Management (RAM), you can use tags to grant users permissions to access and manage specific cloud resources. For more information, see Create a resource with a specific tag and Control access to ECS resources by using tags.
