Resources associate agents with components, and, after being mapped to an application environment, provide deployment targets.

The following diagram outlines the typical steps that are done to create and run a deployment:

A resource group associates agents or agent pools with components A resource group can itself belong to a parent group in a hierarchical collection. A component-type resource can point directly to the agent or agent pool that deploys it, or point to another resource in a hierarchical chain of resources. If a resource is part of a hierarchy, it delegates its automation, if any, up the chain until it finds an agent.

Resources, just like the items they represent, can have properties tags.
