Project management

Project management is a Volcano Engine resource management method that groups resources by business or project. Performing IAM authorization at the project (resource group) level enhances resource isolation and data security while enabling cost tracking through project-based billing. This topic describes how to use projects in veFaaS.

Considerations

veFaaS resources that can be managed at the project level include functions.

A resource can belong to only one project.

By default, if you do not specify a project, a newly created resource joins the default project.

After a resource is bound to a project, it can only be accessed by users who have permissions for that project.

Associating resources across multiple projects requires permissions for all projects to which the resources belong. For example, to associate a function in project A with a TOS Bucket in project B, you must have permissions for both projects (A and B). For authorization steps, see Managing project permissions.

To create or manage resources as an IAM user, the IAM user must have been granted the corresponding permissions by the Volcano Engine root user. For steps of granting global or project-level permissions, see Creating and authorizing users.

Procedure

This topic uses functions as an example to describe how to manage cloud resources by project. The general procedure for project-based resource management is as follows:

Create projects: Create the projects that you use to manage functions.

Add project permissions for IAM users: Grant project permissions to IAM users.

Create functions: As an IAM user, create functions and bind the functions to desired projects.

(Optional) Move functions into/out of projects: You can move functions into or out of a project to change their owning project as needed.

(Optional) Project-based billing: You can filter bills by project.

View projects and resources

View the project of a resource

In the top navigation bar, select the region where your business is located.

In the function list, find the target function and click its name.

On the Function settings tab, view the project bound to the function.

Search for resources by project

In the top navigation bar, select the target region and then select the project as described below.

Select All account resources to view all resources under the current account.

Select a specific project to view all resources bound to that project.

Select Manage projects to go to the project list page to manage projects.

tip

By default, the system displays all resources under the logged-in Volcano Engine root user.

If you log in to the console as an IAM user without global permissions, selecting All account resources does not display all resources under the account. To resolve this, switch to a specific project, or contact the Volcano Engine root user for authorization.
