Summary
This post details the planned evolution of Visual Studio Team Services (VSTS) account structure to better support large, geo-distributed organizations. It announces the shift from the current Account/Collection model to a new 'Organization' concept. Organizations will logically group multiple 'Accounts' (which will merge with the existing 'Collection' concept), allowing for datacenter-agnostic grouping. Key changes include merging Account and Collection into a single entity, introducing the Organization concept, supporting licenses across all accounts within an organization, and enabling organization-level security policy application.
