Platform Tools

Platform Tools provide account-level and platform-wide capabilities that support security, governance, auditability, and user management across CloudRaya.

This section helps you manage your CloudRaya account safely, transparently, and in a way that supports operational and compliance needs.

What Platform Tools Are Used For

Platform Tools are designed to help you:

• Manage account and profile information
• Control access and identity
• Track user and system activities
• Review security-related actions
• Support audit and compliance requirements
• Maintain visibility across all projects

These tools apply at the account level, not per-resource or per-project.

Platform Tools Overview

CloudRaya currently provides the following platform-level tools:

Account & Profile Management

Manage personal and account-wide information used for identification, billing, and security.

Includes:

• Viewing and updating profile information
• Managing billing address details
• Changing account password
• Linking external identity providers
• Allowing admin-assisted account access (with consent)

Team & Access Management (Project-Based)

CloudRaya manages collaboration using a project-based access model.

Teams are not managed globally at the account level. Instead, users are invited to specific projects and granted roles based on their responsibilities within that project.

Through projects, you can:

• Invite team members
• Assign project-specific roles and permissions
• Control access to resources within a project
• Separate environments and ownership

Activity & Audit

Track actions performed across the CloudRaya platform for visibility and compliance.

Includes:

• Viewing user and system activity logs
• Monitoring changes to resources and settings
• Reviewing timestamps, actors, and action results

These logs are essential for troubleshooting, security reviews, and audit purposes.

Session & Security Controls

Manage authentication-related behavior and security posture.

Includes:

• Password changes
• Login and logout behavior
• Linked account authentication
• Admin access control

These controls help protect your account and reduce the risk of unauthorized access.

How Platform Tools Relate to Other Services

Platform Tools work alongside CloudRaya services but remain independent from them.

For example:

• Creating a Virtual Machine is handled under Compute Services
• Billing usage appears under Billing & Payments
• The action of creating a VM is recorded in User Action Log
• The identity performing the action is managed under Account & Profile

This separation ensures clarity, security, and accountability.
