Organize your infrastructure resources into App Hub applications using an
app-enabled folder (Preview)
or a host project.
App-enabled folder
Recommended
An app-enabled folder is a Google Cloud folder that lets you group
infrastructure resources as services and workloads in App Hub
applications. App-enabled folders provision application management across
all the projects under the folder. App-enabled folders also have access to
features such as Application Design Center andGemini Cloud Assist.
For more information on how to set up your App Hub applications in an
app-enabled folder, seeSet up App Hub for an app-enabled folder.
Host project
A host project is a Google Cloud project that that lets you group
infrastructure resources as services and workloads in App Hub
applications. For more information, seeSet up App Hub for a host project.
