Overview of this book

Microsoft Azure is one of the upcoming cloud platforms that provide cost-effective solutions and services to help businesses overcome complex infrastructure-related challenges. This book will help you scale your cloud administration skills with Microsoft Azure. Learn Azure Administration starts with an introduction to the management of Azure subscriptions, and then takes you through Azure resource management. Next, you'll configure and manage virtual networks and find out how to integrate them with a set of Azure services. You'll then handle the identity and security for users with the help of Azure Active Directory, and manage access from a single place using policies and defined roles. As you advance, you'll get to grips with receipts to manage a virtual machine. The next set of chapters will teach you how to solve advanced problems such as DDoS protection, load balancing, and networking for containers. You'll also learn how to set up file servers, along with managing and storing backups. Later, you'll review monitoring solutions and backup plans for a host of services. The last set of chapters will help you to integrate different services with Azure Event Grid, Azure Automation, and Azure Logic Apps, and teach you how to manage Azure DevOps. By the end of this Azure book, you'll be proficient enough to easily administer your Azure-based cloud environment.

  • If you found resources that have a different life cycle and want to differentiate between deployments
  • If you are redesigning an application and want to separate resources related to different domains
  • If you do not want to perform a redeployment to place resources in a different resource group

In Azure, this operation is really simple – all you need to do is gather the following parameters:

  • Destination group: A place where resources should be moved to
  • IDs of resources: The identifiers of the resources you want to move

For example, I want to move an Azure Logic App named azureadministrator-euw-logicapp to a resource group named azureadministratornew-euw-rg.
