Overview

Tags are key-value pairs that help identify and organize cloud resources. You can use tags to identify and classify cloud resources by dimensions like usage, owner, or environment, and then filter resources, classify costs, and set fine-grained permissions based on tags. This simplifies resource management and lowers costs.

In this example, you assign two tags to each cloud resource. Each tag is a key-value pair. The key of one tag is Owner, and the key of another tag is Usage.

Huawei Cloud Tag Management Service (TMS) is a visualized service for fast, unified tag management. It allows you to centrally manage tags and categorize resources for different regions and services. Resource tags can also facilitate permission and billing management. You can access TMS through a unified console or APIs.

For details about the functions and usage of TMS, see the official documentation.
