Tagging Standard for Cloud Projects

Introduction

This document outlines the label standard that will be used to set meta data information associated with cloud projects in the Public Health Data Center of Excellence (PDCP). The tagging standard consists of tags that must be filled out when creating a new project. The standard is designed to provide important information about the project, including the client organization, technical contacts, environment, data sensitivity, cloud usage profile, and project name.
