Accounts, Teams & Projects

Accounts, Teams and Projects are the fundamental building blocks of your Client Portal, which help you organize your workflow at Cherry Servers.

Overview

Every user Account at Cherry Servers starts with a single Team and a single Project created by default, and all your new service are assigned automatically to this default Project.

These are three main topological layers of your Client Portal which help you organize your workflow in a more profound way. User Accounts have a many-to-many relationship with Teams, while Teams have a one-to-many relationship with Projects.

Accounts

When you register at Cherry Servers a new user Account is created. User Accounts are required to store personal identifiable information for user authentication purposes.

On a user Account level you can add and change your profile information, set-up two factor authentication, enable IP protection, add your SSH key, or generate an API key.

An Account can create a new Team, in which case such Account will be assigned with a Team Owner's role.

Teams

Teams allow you to collaborate with other users, assign permissions to user Accounts and share resources across associated Projects under a shared billing account.

On a Team level you can assign team membership roles, add billing method, modify billing information, check billing history, or configure alerts.

Different Projects can be created within a Team.

Projects

A Project is basically a container that groups your computing, networking and storage services.

On a Project level you can deploy new servers, add floating IP addresses, or create block storage volumes.
