Cloud Account Management¶

In the process of business operations, enterprises often need to use multiple cloud service accounts to meet different business needs. However, when these cloud services fail, decentralized management can lead to inefficiency and increased operational costs.

The "Cloud Account Management" feature centralizes all cloud service accounts of an enterprise for unified management, distinguishing them by the uniqueness of certain configurations under each account. By configuring integrated collectors, independent management of cloud services under each account is achieved, enabling fine-grained control of business data.

This management approach not only simplifies the cloud service management process for enterprises but also helps in quickly locating and resolving service failures, thereby significantly reducing management costs and improving fault response speed.

Add Authorization¶

Currently, the following types of cloud accounts are supported for authorization.

AWS

Alibaba Cloud

Huawei Cloud

Tencent Cloud

Google Cloud

Manage Authorization¶

Successfully created cloud accounts will be displayed on the Integration > Cloud Account Management page. You can perform the following operations:

• Quickly filter by type in the upper right corner;
• Directly search for a cloud account alias in the search bar to locate it;
• Perform a delete operation directly via the settings button;
• Click into a specific account information to edit it again.

Configure Integration¶

Once a cloud account is successfully created, authorization to Guance is completed. You can install integrations as needed under this account to start data collection.

Configure in Cloud Account Information¶

Click into the cloud account information details page > Integration, where you can view all related integrations under the current account.

Click Install on the right to enter the automatic installation page:

1. The cloud account is automatically filled in;
2. Select the applicable region type as needed;
3. The system will automatically recognize the metrics included in the current integration script, which you can modify as needed;
4. Filters currently support = and in operations;
5. After successful installation, proceed with script installation.

Direct Configuration on the Integration Side¶

1. Go to Integration to install directly. On the single integration installation page, you can configure multiple cloud accounts;
2. Click to add a cloud account;
3. You can check other cloud accounts that need to be configured and configure the region, metrics, and filters;
4. Click install, and the cloud account will be updated with the latest configuration.

Delete/Uninstall Integration¶

• On the cloud account management list page, click the settings icon to delete a cloud account. After deletion, data collection for all configured integrations under this cloud account will stop, but the already collected data will not be affected;

• On the integration tab of the cloud account details page, click the uninstall button to stop data collection for a specific integration, but the already collected data will not be affected;

• After clicking uninstall on the integration side, all AWS cloud accounts will stop collecting data for that integration. If you only need to stop data collection for a specific cloud account, you can do so in the cloud account configuration.
