Resource tagging is a process of adding descriptive metadata (tags) to cloud resources, such as virtual machines, storage accounts, databases, etc. Tags can be used to track and allocate costs, identify resources by project, owner, environment, or any other criteria. Resource tagging can help the finance department to have cost allocation transparency across different projects on a shared platform.
