Manage Resources

A resource is a logical entity that represents any user-defined entity in the system. A resource always belongs to a project and is identified by a unique identifier called urn or via it's id. For example, in a system that manages databases, a resource can be a database instance. For a database instance, it's namespace can be db/instance and when the actual db service creates a database instance, it can create a resource in the frontier to manage it authorization. When working with custom resources, ensure that the namespace has enough permissions to create, update and delete resources. Without these permissions, the frontier will not be able to manage the resource, specially when the resource is deleted.
