An account in MCM is a credential-backed connection to a cloud provider, source control system, container registry, or host. Connecting an account is a one-time step — every MCM module (Discovery, FinOps, Governance, SecOps, Orchestration, and Observability) then uses that connection without any per-module credential setup.
MCM provides a guided onboarding wizard for each provider type, with permission templates and step-by-step validation. Each connected account shows a live connection status — Active, Warning, or Failed — so credential issues are visible before they cause module outages. Accounts can be labelled with environment tags (Production, Staging, Development) that carry through to all modules.
