Labels are used to match application names and resources in OpenShift 3 Web Console.

Application Name

Set the value of metadata.labels.app in deplomentconfig allow OpenShift to show application name in overview page. Deployment configs with the same value will be grouped together.

Networking Information

OpenShift could display related services and routes of a deploymentconfig in overview page. This requires a match between metadata.name and spec.template.metadata.labels.deploymentconfig in a deploymentconfig.
