I think the global limits and quota are quite different, Account/Global limits are per resource are to limit a user/account to run/deploy/use maximum amount of a resource, for example number of VMs a user can deploy. Quota is to block new demands from a user/account once they exhaust their quota/credit. For example, we can give some quota to a user which is giving them 1000 cloud coins (credit), each cloud resource such as ip address and VMs have a flat quota rate (for example, 10 points per IP); the user deploys bunch of VMs and consumes some public IPs etc, and finally the user exhausts the quota and the quota system blocks the user to demand any new resource.
