Overview

You can use the application management function of COC to manage resources by group and manage the relationship between cloud service objects and applications. The management scope includes core resources of Huawei Cloud, other clouds (currently, Alibaba Cloud, AWS, and Azure are supported), and IDC resources, provides unified and reliable resource group information for functions such as chaos drills, change management, and account management.

Applications are classified into lightweight and large-scale types based on their complexity.

  • Lightweight: Lightweight applications feature fewer layers and a simpler structure.

    The structure of a lightweight application: Applications > Components > Groups > Resources.

  • Large-scale: Large-scale applications have complex structures.

    The structure of a large-scale application: applications > sub-applications (supporting multi-layer) > components > groups > resources.

Concepts

Learn the following essential concepts first to begin using the application management function efficiently.

Concept

Description

Application

An application may be a standalone software program that runs independently, or an organizational unit such as a department that operates autonomously.

Sub-application

A sub-application can be a software program that runs independently within an organization or department, or an independent functional module.

Component

A component is usually a basic unit of a functional module, such as the log, authentication, frontend, or backend module.

Group

A group is the minimum unit that can be associated with resources. Resources used by a component are logically separated, for example, different environments (test, grayscale, and formal environments) of a component.

Automatically Associating Resources with an Application

Resources bound to groups are automatically updated based on enterprise projects and tags, as selected.
