The Basic Object Model
The figures below show the basic object model.
Using One Microsoft Account for Several Odin Automation Customer Accounts
Within an Odin Automation instance, several Direct and Indirect CSP Providers can be represented as vendor accounts. Indirect CSP Resellers can also be represented as vendor accounts subordinate to the respective vendor accounts of their Indirect CSP Providers. A customer that has an account in the Microsoft cloud can be represented as several customer accounts subordinate to different vendor accounts.
In the Microsoft cloud, a Microsoft account can have many cloud subscriptions from different CSP Providers. In Odin Automation, those cloud subscriptions are represented as Odin Automation subscriptions from the respective vendor accounts.
Note: In Odin Automation, an Office 365 subscription can belong to one or more cloud subscriptions from a CSP Provider, depending on the offers included in the Office 365 subscription.
