Resource Definitions
Understand what Resource Definitions are in Humanitec.

What is a Resource Definition?

A Resource Definition defines how and when resources should be provisioned. For example, new DNS names might be provisioned using the dns-cloudflare driver (the how) but only for deployments to "development" environments (the when). A different Resource Definition might specify a specific DNS name to use when deploying to production.

Manage resources in Humanitec

You can manage Resource Definitions across your Apps and Environments in Humanitec from the Resource Management screen.
If you cannot find a specific External Resource or Driver in Humanitec, contact us.
