Modules in this learning path
Azure virtual machines (VMs) enable you to create dedicated compute resources in minutes that can be used just like a physical desktop or server machine.
Learn how to use the cross-platform Azure CLI to create, start, stop, and perform other management tasks related to virtual machines in Azure.
Understand and create the different types of disk storage available to Azure virtual machines (VMs).
Learn how Resource Manager templates express your deployments as code, enabling you to deploy faster and more reliably.
Standardize and automate your virtual machine deployments to minimize manual configuration, variance, and errors.
Enable your application to automatically adjust to changes in load while minimizing costs with virtual machine scale sets.
Create a desired state configuration script that checks that IIS is installed. Onboard virtual machines (VMs) for management by Azure Automation. Automatically install IIS on the VMs where that feature is missing.
Create a Docker image and store it in a repository in Azure Container Registry. Use Azure App Service to deploy a web application based on the Docker image. Configure continuous deployment for the web app by using a webhook that monitors the Docker image for changes.
Respond to periods of increased activity by incrementally increasing the resources available and then, to reduce costs, decreasing these resources when activity drops.
