Today, I'm excited to share my experience in setting up my initial Resource Group and Virtual Machine on Microsoft Azure. Before diving into the process, let's quickly define what a Resource Group and Virtual Machine entail. A Resource Group serves as a consolidated container for managing and organizing resources within a unified entity, while a Virtual Machine empowers users to generate and deploy virtualized replicas of computers equipped with diverse operating systems within the cloud. Now, let's explore the step-by-step procedure I followed to streamline this process.
