Azure Resource Manager (ARM)

Azure Resource Manager (ARM) is Microsoft's management platform for organizing and controlling cloud resources in Azure. It allows you to group related services, like virtual machines or databases, into logical units called "resource groups" for easier management. ARM provides consistent deployment, security, and access controls, enabling you to automate and coordinate resource provisioning, updates, and monitoring efficiently. Think of it as a centralized dashboard that helps you manage your cloud infrastructure in a structured, secure, and scalable way.
