Project Creation
A Project in Taikun serves as the central hub for creating and managing Kubernetes clusters. It allows you to organize your resources, separate environments (e.g., development, staging, production), and streamline cluster management. With a single Project, you can view and manage all associated clusters and resources, making it especially useful for teams managing multiple environments or clusters.
Adding a New Project
You can create a new Project after adding your Cloud credentials. During Project creation, you can specify advanced features for your Kubernetes cluster, such as access profiles or monitoring configurations.
Who Can Create Projects? Projects can be created by Managers or Partners of your account. These users can also assign Projects to colleagues.
