Managing Resource Groups

Azure Resource Groups (RGs) are logical containers that hold related Azure resources, such as VMs, storage accounts, and databases. With Resource Groups you can:

• Organise resources by grouping related resources for easier management and monitoring.
• Simplify security and access control by applying policies and access controls to entire groups.
• Better manage the lifecycle of resources. You can deploy, update or delete all resources in a group simultaneously.
• Apply RABC to a resource group to manage permissions for all resources within it.
• Set up monitoring and alerts at the resource group level to keep track of all the health and performance pf all resources withing the group.
