When you consider these options\nearly, you help ensure that your choices properly align with your business needs.\n\nTo create plans for your resources, see the following:\n\n- [Consider geographic distribution](/docs/get-started/consider-geographic-distribution): Google Cloud infrastructure services are located across the world, and are divided into regions and zones. The locations you choose affect the latency, availability, and durability of your resources.\n- [Create an ownership hierarchy](/docs/get-started/create-ownership-hierarchy): The resource hierarchy helps you organize resources into folders and projects. The structure you create helps you control access and separate work streams.\n- [Consider resource maintenance](/docs/get-started/consider-resource-maintenance): Some resources have maintenance policies that can help you plan for outages and required updates. Consider maintenance behaviors early to keep your applications running smoothly."]]
