Resource groups allow you to organize your cloud resources by purpose, permission, and ownership for hierarchical management across multiple users and projects. A cloud resource can belong to only one resource group at a time, and relationships between resources are not affected when they are added to a resource group.
Usage
-
A resource group can contain cloud resources from different regions. For example, a single resource group can hold instances in both the China (Beijing) and China (Hangzhou) regions.
-
Resource groups inherit the global permissions of a RAM user. For example, a RAM user who is granted permissions to manage all Alibaba Cloud resources can also access all resource groups that belong to your Alibaba Cloud account.
