+# Organize Your Infrastructure and Invite your Team
+
+Netdata Cloud provides you with features such as [Spaces](#netdata-cloud-spaces) and [War Rooms](#netdata-cloud-war-rooms) that allow you to better organize your infrastructure and ensure your team can also have access to it through invites.
+
+## Netdata Cloud Spaces
+
+Organize your multi-organization infrastructure monitoring on Netdata Cloud by creating Spaces to completely isolate access to your Agent-monitored nodes.
+
+A Space is a high-level container. It's a collaboration space where you can organize team members, access levels and the
+nodes you want to monitor.
+
+Let's talk through some strategies for creating the most intuitive Cloud experience for your team.
+
+### How to organize your Netdata Cloud
+
+You can use any number of Spaces you want, but as you organize your Cloud experience, keep in mind that _you can only
+add any given node to a single Space_. This 1:1 relationship between node and Space may dictate whether you use one
+encompassing Space for your entire team and separate them by War Rooms, or use different Spaces for teams monitoring
+discrete parts of your infrastructure.
+
+If you have been invited to Netdata Cloud by another user by default you will able to see that space. If you are a new
+user the first space is already created.
+
+The other consideration for the number of Spaces you use to organize your Netdata Cloud experience is the size and
+complexity of your organization.
+
+For smaller teams and infrastructures, we recommend sticking to a single Space so that you can keep all your nodes and their
+respective metrics in one place. You can then use
+multiple [War Rooms](#netdata-cloud-war-rooms)
+to further organize your infrastructure monitoring.
+
+Enterprises may want to create multiple Spaces for each of their larger teams, particularly if those teams have
+different responsibilities or parts of the overall infrastructure to monitor. For example, you might have one SRE team
+for your user-facing SaaS application and a second team for infrastructure tooling. If they don't need to monitor the
+same nodes, you can create separate Spaces for each team.
+
+### Navigate between spaces
+
+Click on any of the boxes to switch between available Spaces.
+
+Netdata Cloud abbreviates each Space to the first letter of the name, or the first two letters if the name is two words
+or more. Hover over each icon to see the full name in a tooltip.
+
+To add a new Space click on the green **+** button. Enter the name of the Space and click **Save**.
+
+![Switch between Spaces](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/assets/70198089/aa0d7a2f-02ec-4c01-a2d9-1f99642f2496)
+
+### Manage Spaces
+
+Manage your spaces by selecting a particular space and clicking on the small gear icon in the lower left corner. This
+will open a side tab in which you can:
+
+1. _Configure this Space*_, in the first tab (**Space**) you can change the name, description or/and some privilege
+ options of this space
+
+2. _Edit the War Rooms*_, click on the **War rooms** tab to add or remove War Rooms.
+
+3. _Connect nodes*_, click on **Nodes** tab. Copy the claiming script to your node and run it. See the
+ [connect to Cloud doc](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/claim/README.md) for details.
+
+4. _Manage the users*_, click on **Users**.
+ The [invitation doc](#invite-your-team)
+ details the invitation process.
+
+5. _Manage notification setting*_, click on **Notifications** tab to turn off/on notification methods.
+
+6. _Manage your bookmarks*_, click on the **Bookmarks** tab to add or remove bookmarks that you need.
+
+> #### Note
+>
+> \* This action requires admin rights for this space
+
+### Obsoleting offline nodes from a Space
+
+Netdata admin users now have the ability to remove obsolete nodes from a space.
+
+- Only admin users have the ability to obsolete nodes
+- Only offline nodes can be marked obsolete (Live nodes and stale nodes cannot be obsoleted)
+- Node obsoletion works across the entire space, so the obsoleted node will be removed from all rooms belonging to the
+ space
+- If the obsoleted nodes eventually become live or online once more they will be automatically re-added to the space
+
+![Obsoleting an offline node](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/24860547/173087202-70abfd2d-f0eb-4959-bd0f-74aeee2a2a5a.gif)
+
+## Netdata Cloud War rooms
+
+Netdata Cloud uses War Rooms to organize your connected nodes and provide infrastructure-wide dashboards using real-time metrics and visualizations.
+
+Once you add nodes to a Space, all of your nodes will be visible in the **All nodes** War Room. This is a special War Room
+which gives you an overview of all of your nodes in this particular Space. Then you can create functional separations of
+your nodes into more War Rooms. Every War Room has its own dashboards, navigation, indicators, and management tools.
+
+![An example War Room](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/43294513/225355998-f16730ba-06d4-4953-8fd3-f1c2751e102d.png)
+
+### War Room organization
+
+We recommend a few strategies for organizing your War Rooms.
+
+- **Service, purpose, location, etc.**
+ You can group War Rooms by a service (Nginx, MySQL, Pulsar, and so on), their purpose (webserver, database, application), their physical location, whether they're "bare metal" or a Docker container, the PaaS/cloud provider it runs on, and much more.
+ This allows you to see entire slices of your infrastructure by moving from one War Room to another.
+
+- **End-to-end apps/services**
+ If you have a user-facing SaaS product, or an internal service that this said product relies on, you may want to monitor that entire stack in a single War Room. This might include Kubernetes clusters, Docker containers, proxies, databases, web servers, brokers, and more.
+ End-to-end War Rooms are valuable tools for ensuring the health and performance of your organization's essential services.
+
+- **Incident response**
+ You can also create new War Rooms as one of the first steps in your incident response process.
+ For example, you have a user-facing web app that relies on Apache Pulsar for a message queue, and one of your nodes using the [Pulsar collector](https://github.com/netdata/go.d.plugin/blob/master/modules/pulsar/README.md) begins reporting a suspiciously low messages rate.
+ You can create a War Room called `$year-$month-$day-pulsar-rate`, add all your Pulsar nodes in addition to nodes they connect to, and begin diagnosing the root cause in a War Room optimized for getting to resolution as fast as possible.
+
+### Add War Rooms
+
+To add new War Rooms to any Space, click on the green plus icon **+** next to the **War Rooms** heading on the left (Space's) sidebar.
+
+In the panel, give the War Room a name and description, and choose whether it's public or private.
+Anyone in your Space can join public War Rooms, but can only join private War Rooms with an invitation.
+
+### Manage War Rooms
+
+All the users and nodes involved in a particular Space can be part of a War Room.
+
+Any user can change simple settings of a War room, like the name or the users participating in it.
+Click on the gear icon of the War Room's name in the top of the page to do that. A sidebar will open with options for this War Room:
+
+1. To **change a War Room's name, description, or public/private status**, click on **War Room** tab.
+
+2. To **include an existing node** to a War Room or **connect a new node\*** click on **Nodes** tab. Choose any connected node you want to add to this War Room by clicking on the checkbox next to its hostname, then click **+ Add** at the top of the panel.
+
+3. To **add existing users to a War Room**, click on **Add Users**.
+ See our [invite doc](#invite-your-team.md) for details on inviting new users to your Space in Netdata Cloud.
+
+> #### Note
+>
+>\* This action requires **admin** rights for this Space
+
+#### More actions
+
+To **view or remove nodes** in a War Room, click on the **Nodes tab**. To remove a node from the current War Room, click on
+the **🗑** icon.
+
+> #### Info
+>
+> Removing a node from a War Room does not remove it from your Space.
