## Container Cluster Management (CCM)

**Enhanced UI:** The left navigation panel on the Container Cluster Management landing page has been replaced with a tab navigation option. Users can now toggle between Container Cluster Management data and the Controller Service APIs page, enabling more efficient navigation.

## Platform Services - Tag Management

**Global tag available across all organizational units:** Managing tags in the Shared Commercial Infrastructure is challenging because the process of updating multiple instances and values across accounts is labor-intensive. Tags need to be added for every customer, and any changes to a tag's value require updates to every instance. To address this issue, Bridge now offers Global Tags. These tags can be created and accessed across all Organizational Units (such as Global, Account, Country, Market, etc.). This feature simplifies administration and reduces the complexity associated with managing multiple tags, which is often necessary in traditional systems that require duplicating tags for each account.
