Projects

Cloud Orbiter is a comprehensive platform that simplifies infrastructure management and streamlines application deployment. This page of the product documentation will provide an overview of how to manage projects in Cloud Orbiter and leverage its powerful features to isolate infrastructure and applications within projects.

What are Projects?

Projects in Cloud Orbiter are a fundamental concept that allow you to organize and manage your infrastructure and application resources. At its core, a project is a logical entity that represents a specific initiative or deployment. For example, you might create a project for a particular application or service, or for a specific team within your organization. Cloud Orbiter creates a default project for each domin to ensure a smooth onboarding experience.

Each project in Cloud Orbiter is an isolated environment that contains its own set of infrastructure and application resources. This allows you to manage and scale your resources independently of one another, without worrying about resource conflicts or dependencies.

Projects are also powerful tools for collaboration and delegation. By assigning specific users and groups to a project, you can delegate tasks and responsibilities to different teams or individuals, while maintaining overall control and visibility over your resources. This enables you to streamline your operations and improve efficiency, while still maintaining a high degree of control and security over your resources.
