Creating a Resource Group

What is a resource group?

A resource is a valuable asset that Azure offers. It can be an asset that Azure completely manages on the cloud, such as storage accounts. Azure can also allocate the asset and hand over the management to users like VMs. Resource groups and subscriptions are also examples of resources.

A resource group is a collection of related resources for an Azure solution. The resource group includes those resources that we want to manage as a group.

Azure Resource Manager (ARM) is Azure’s deployment and management service. It enables us to create, update, and delete resources in our Azure account.
