To delegate management of access control permissions to each business unit effectively, organizing projects into folders and assigning permissions to Google groups at the folder level allows for scalable and manageable access control. Using Google Cloud Directory Sync (GCDS) to synchronize users and groups from the on-premises directory service ensures that access controls are maintained and updated automatically as users change roles or leave the company.
Steps:
* Organize Projects in Folders: Create a folder structure in the Google Cloud Resource Manager to organize projects by business unit.
* Assign Permissions to Google Groups: Use IAM to assign necessary permissions to Google Groups at the folder level, ensuring each business unit can manage access controls for their own projects.
* Synchronize Users and Groups: Use GCDS to sync users and group memberships from your on- premises directory service to Google Cloud Identity, ensuring that changes in the on-premises directory are reflected in Google Cloud.
