# Tag cloud resources

Managing thousands of cloud resources across regions, environments, and teams is complex without a systematic approach. Tags are key-value pairs that help you manage, identify, organize, locate, and filter resources. It is important to have a clear, well-defined cloud resource tagging strategy. You can also use tags to track cost allocation and usage, and automate resource management tasks.

[AWS](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/whitepapers/latest/tagging-best-practices/tagging-best-practices.html), [Azure](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cloud-adoption-framework/ready/azure-best-practices/resource-tagging), and [IBM](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/framework-financial-services?topic=framework-financial-services-shared-tagging-resources) maintain best practices and strategies for tagging your cloud resources. Follow these best practices when creating your tagging strategy. You can apply these concepts to other infrastructure providers.

You can implement your tagging strategy using infrastructure as code (IaC) and enforce compliance with policy as code, preventing the deployment of resources that don't meet your tagging requirements.

- **Easier resource tracking:** Find resources by environment, owner, or other custom tag. For example, quickly find all servers in the 'dev' environment.
1617
- **Granular cost allocation:** Track costs by project, team, or application.
1718
- **Tag-based resource automation:** Automate resource management tasks based on tags, such as starting or stopping instances.
