Identity: Microsoft Entra ID
Page 1 of 1
Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure AD)
Entra ID is Microsoft’s cloud-based identity and access management service. It is different from traditional Windows Server Active Directory.
- Tenant: A dedicated instance of Entra ID that an organization receives when it signs up for a Microsoft cloud service (like Azure or Office 365).
- Subscription: A logical container used to provision resources. It is the boundary for billing. You pay for what is in the subscription.
- Hierarchy: Management Groups -> Subscriptions -> Resource Groups -> Resources. You can apply policies and access controls at any level, and they inherit down.
