In VMware Aria Automation Assembler, tags are critical for managing, analyzing, monitoring, and

grouping deployed resources. Among the various types of tags, the standard tag is automatically

applied during the provisioning of some deployments. These standard tags are essential for

supporting the analysis, monitoring, and grouping of deployed resources.

Standard tags in VMware Aria Automation are system-generated and stored as custom properties.

They are used primarily for tracking and managing resources post-deployment. Unlike user-defined

tags, standard tags are automatically applied and are not used during the deployment configuration

to enforce constraints or capabilities. Instead, they facilitate operational functions such as

monitoring resource usage, ensuring compliance, and optimizing resource management.

Other types of tags, like constraint tags and capability tags, are user-defined and are crucial during

the deployment process for determining resource allocation and meeting specific requirements or

constraints. However, standard tags serve a distinct purpose by providing a consistent way to monitor

and group resources after they have been provisioned.
