# Configure datacenters for Cloud vs Non-cloud resources

The Cloud vs Non-cloud resources chart in CMDB Workspace determines which CIs and application services are stored on a cloud and which aren't in the organization. In addition to base system classifications, you can add cloud versus non-cloud classifications that reflect
specific datacenter deployments in the organization.

## Before you begin

Role required: sn_cmdb_admin

## About this task

The Datacenter Types \[sn_cmdb_ws_datacenter_type\] table stores datacenter classes with a classification of being used as a cloud storage or not in the organization. The calculations for the Cloud vs Non-cloud resources chart in
the CI overview tile in [CMDB Workspace](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/BpRE~ioD6YSXTWPbjQaAkQ "The CMDB Workspace is an efficient, central, and modernized way for you to work. Use CMDB Workspace to search and explore the CMDB, examine health and recent activities, and access CMDB dashboards and tools to support tasks in your organization."), reflects on the datacenters in that table and their classifications.  
CIs are counted as non-cloud mainly if either of the following conditions is met:

* The CI is not associated with any datacenter.
* The CI is associated with a datacenter that is classified as non-cloud in the Datacenter Types table.
{#cmdb-workspace-config-datacenter__ul_ry2_jgm_bwb}

In the base system, the Datacenter Types table contains several common datacenters. For example, the Azure Datacenter \[cmdb_ci_azure_datacenter\] class is classified as 'Cloud'. Therefore, the Cloud vs Non-cloud resources chart
includes in its calculations and bars the Azure Datacenter \[cmdb_ci_azure_datacenter\] class.

## Procedure

1. Select All.
2. In the Filter navigator, enter <kbd class="ph userinput">sn_cmdb_ws_datacenter_type.list</kbd> to access the Datacenter Types table.
3. Click New and fill out the Datacenter Type form for a datacenter that is used in the organization.
