Resource Groups & Subscriptions & Management Groups

Last updated
Basically like a file structure for the Resources on Azure:
They are logical groupings of related things:
This could be by project
Individual people who work on that group
Subscription is a billing unit
You can create multiple Subscriptions
As a User you have access to more subscriptions with different roles
All resources consumed by a subscription will be billed to the owner and has to be specified.
Can be used to organize resource into completely distinct accounts
You can use the same credit card to organize into different subscriptions
Example:
Each Department has it's own Subscription
Above that you have an account (which is a user) which is the global Administrator
Management Groups can be nested, meaning that you can have management groups containing management groups
