About abstract datastore tiers

To work with the same service levels in multiple datacenters, and public cloud, use Abstract datastore tiers to group storage service levels, which are datastore tiers.

See Manage datastore service levels with datastore tiers and Manage datastore storage policies

You can then create limits for an enterprise in each storage service level. And you can bill customers for use of each tier across private and public cloud.

Manage abstract datastore tiers

You can display abstract datastore tiers on the dashboard, with usage and limits by enterprise. See Manage dashboards and Dashboard widgets#Abstract datastore tiers. Note that the Abstract datastore tiers widget will display the abstract datastore tiers that are enabled and allowed to the enterprise, and also disabled tiers.
