ARM templates

ARM Templates, or Azure Resource Manager Templates, are files that define the infrastructure and services needed to run applications in Microsoft Azure. Think of them as blueprints for building cloud environments. These templates use a specific code format to describe resources like virtual machines, databases, and networks. By using ARM Templates, organizations can automate the deployment and management of their Azure resources consistently and reproducibly, ensuring that changes can be made quickly and reliably, similar to following a recipe to create a dish.
