Cloud Foundry enables platform operators to organize the Cloud Foundry deployment as per their organizational structure and add users with various capabilities through roles. A Cloud Foundry deployment can be structured around Organizations (Orgs) and Spaces. It is very important to understand the concepts of organizations and spaces, so you can design your Cloud Foundry deployment as per your company's requirements.
In this chapter, we will explore the most common ways to design an Org and a Space, understand roles, and grant access to users to an Org or a Space on Pivotal PCF Dev. We will be using the cf CLI and the Apps Manager to create an org, a space, a user, and assign role(s) to them.
Specifically, we'll cover the following:
- Creating an Org
- Creating a Space
- Adding users
- Assigning roles to users
