Manage tags on multi-cloud resources
You can easily enter the tags in the Abiquo multi-cloud user-friendly single pane of glass for managing cloud management console to manage resources in all popular cloud providers.
Abiquo supports tags in public cloud providers and tags that are local to the multi-cloud platform.
In private cloud and also on resources that exist in the platform only you can create local tags only.
Abiquo manages, onboards, and synchronizes tags from public cloud providers. Abiquo
Abiquo describes the tags that exist in the platform and the provider as "materialized" tags.
For example, for a VM in Amazon AWS, you can manage your own tags and onboard tags that are already in the provider.

Multicloud tagging
The multi-cloud tag feature enables you to tag resources in transversal projects using more than one cloud provider and also private cloud, which makes it easier for you to inventory these resources. You can also display tags in the console of the public cloud provider and configure the options to display tags on public cloud provider invoices.
...
Future extensions to this feature may include reports on groups of resources with the same tag, definition of cost centers by tags to enable you to create custom budgets. This means that you will be able to combine this functionality, so for example, if you exceed the budget for a group of VMs with the same tag, then the platform can run an action plan on a group of VMs defined by tags.
...
The new tagging feature does not manage tags in vCenter. Some administrators may be familiar with the vCenter-tags tool that enables an administrator to add Abiquo data to tags in vCenter. This tool is separate from the Abiquo platform and it is unrelated to the multi-cloud tagging feature.
