# Resource Center

Platform administration covers the **foundational organization and resource capabilities** within an AI Studio workspace: workspaces and members, Catalog and compute instances, and cross-workspace data sharing and subscriptions.

Start by setting up a workspace, then configure members and resources, and finally share data as needed.

## What you can do in this section

- Create, switch, and manage **workspaces**
- Guide members through joining and role assignment (full operations are under User Permissions)
- Browse and manage **Catalog** data assets
- Create and manage **compute instances** for queries or tasks
- **Publish** data to other workspaces or **subscribe** to data published by others

## Recommended order

1. [Workspaces](https://omnifabric.cloudsigma.com/docs/guides/ai-studio/resource-center/workspace.html.md): confirm the current workspace or create a project workspace.
2. [Member management](https://omnifabric.cloudsigma.com/docs/guides/ai-studio/resource-center/members.html.md) → [User permissions](https://omnifabric.cloudsigma.com/docs/guides/ai-studio/permissions/index.html.md): invite colleagues and assign roles.
3. [Catalog](https://omnifabric.cloudsigma.com/docs/guides/ai-studio/resource-center/catalog.html.md): prepare directories and databases for storing data.
4. [Compute instances](https://omnifabric.cloudsigma.com/docs/guides/ai-studio/resource-center/compute.html.md): create dedicated instances as needed, or start with platform defaults.
5. After the data is ready, use [Data sharing](https://omnifabric.cloudsigma.com/docs/guides/ai-studio/resource-center/share-data.html.md) and [Data subscriptions](https://omnifabric.cloudsigma.com/docs/guides/ai-studio/resource-center/subscribe.html.md) to collaborate across workspaces.
