Welcome to the Research Deployment Tools module—your go-to resource for mastering Azure Services. This guide delves into the powerful Azure deployment and management tools, ensuring you can efficiently automate and manage your cloud infrastructure. In this article, we explore several essential components:
  • Azure Portal, PowerShell, and Azure CLI: While the Azure Portal offers an intuitive graphical interface, Azure PowerShell and Azure CLI provide exceptional flexibility through script automation and command-line operations. These tools together form the backbone of interacting with your Azure environment.
