INTRODUCTION
In Microsoft Azure, a Resource Group is a logical container that holds related resources for an Azure solution. It is a fundamental concept in Azure Resource Manager (ARM), which is the deployment and management service in Azure. Resource groups help you organize, manage, and monitor your Azure resources efficiently.
Key Features of a Resource Group:
Logical Grouping: Resources like virtual machines, databases, storage accounts, or networking components that are part of the same application or project can be grouped together.
Management:You can deploy, update, or delete all resources in a resource group as a single unit. This simplifies tasks like provisioning or cleanup.
Location: Every resource group is tied to a specific Azure region (e.g., East US, West Europe), though the resources within it can reside in different regions.
Access Control: You can apply Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) at the resource group level to define who can manage or access the resources.
Tagging: You can add metadata tags to resource groups for better organization, cost tracking, or automation.
Billing: Resource groups help track costs for a set of resources, making it easier to manage budgets.
