Behavioral divergences

Management Groups + Subscriptions + Resource Groups hierarchy

Quake AI concept: Organizations

  • Azure's organization model is a four-level hierarchy: Tenant (Entra ID) → Management Groups → Subscriptions → Resource Groups. OpenStack uses a two-level model: Domain → Project. Quake AI exposes Projects within an Organization.
  • Azure Management Groups support up to 10,000 groups with 6 levels of depth; policy and RBAC assigned at a management group cascade to all child subscriptions. OpenStack has no equivalent cascading policy inheritance between projects.
  • Azure subscriptions are both billing containers and resource containers; each has its own cost center and invoice. OpenStack projects are resource containers only; billing is aggregated at the account level.
  • Azure resources must be placed in both a Subscription and a Resource Group; no resource exists outside a Resource Group. OpenStack resources belong to a project with no resource group concept.
