Services in Yandex Cloud let you manage specific cloud resources and access to them.

List of Yandex Cloud services

The following services are currently available as part of the Yandex Cloud platform:

How to enable services

You can use the Yandex Cloud management console to enable services and manage resources. It allows you to launch VM instances in Yandex Cloud, connect to them, access object storage, create databases, and so on.

Services at the Preview stage are available only to some users. If you want to use one of these services, send us a request for access. You can do this on the page of the service you want to use.

Service resource labels

Most services support labels for marking resources.

A label is a key-value pair in <label name>=<label value> format. You can use labels to logically separate resources.

Labels are subject to the following restrictions:

  • The maximum number of labels per resource is 64.
  • For the key:
    • The length can be from 1 to 63 characters.
    • May contain lowercase Latin letters, numbers, hyphens, and underscores.
    • The first character must be a letter.
  • Restrictions for the value:
    • The length can be up to 63 characters.
    • May contain lowercase Latin letters, numbers, hyphens, and underscores.

Managing labels

You can add, delete, or update resource labels.

Adding a label

If you don't have the Yandex Cloud command line interface yet, install and initialize it.

Add a label to a service resource:

yc <service name> <resource type> add-labels <resource name or ID> \
  --labels <label name>=<label value>

Updating a label

If you don't have the Yandex Cloud command line interface yet, install and initialize it.

Warning

The existing set of labels is completely replaced by the set transmitted.

Update a service resource label:

yc <service name> <resource type> update <resource name or ID> \
  --labels <label name>=<label value>

Deleting a label

If you don't have the Yandex Cloud command line interface yet, install and initialize it.

Delete a service resource label:

yc <service name> <resource type> remove-labels <resource name or ID> \
  --labels <label name>
