What Are the Differences Between IAM Projects and Enterprise Projects?

IAM Projects

IAM projects group and physically isolate resources in the same region. Resources cannot be transferred between IAM projects, but can only be deleted and then created or purchased again.

For details about IAM projects, see Projects.

Enterprise Projects

Enterprise projects group and manage resources across regions. Resources in enterprise projects are logically isolated from each other. An enterprise project can contain resources in multiple regions, and resources can be transferred between enterprise projects. Enterprise Management makes it easy for you to assign permissions for specific cloud resources. For example, you can add an Elastic Cloud Server (ECS) to an enterprise project, and assign permissions to a user for managing the ECS in the project. The user then can manage only this ECS. You cannot create projects in IAM after enabling Enterprise Management.

For details about enterprise projects, see Creating an Enterprise Project.
