Hierarchical multitenancy is available since Kilo and enables a better resource management by creating projects and subprojects in a hierarchical fashion. Among other benefits, quota management and access control are simplified by the use of roles that are inheritable for lower levels of the hierarchy and this reflects more accurately the responsibilities and resource sharing in an organization.Another improvement that we’ve made is the addition of projects acting as domains, where now, projects are not only the container of other services’ resources, but also contain users and other projects, that once belonged to domains.In this talk, we will present the recently incorporated features, in which projects could mirror the real hierarchical structure of organizations and ease resource management and access control by cloud administrators and how using projects acting as domains can make the life of the cloud administrator easier.
DevOps for a large organization will learn how to organize better their resources with a much more comfortable resource-management approach by using hierarchical projects and project acting as domains.
