As we stride through the #100DaysOfCloud, today marked a hands-on exploration into the heart of Azure – deploying Virtual Machines (VMs) using the intuitive Azure Portal.💻✨

🔍 Azure VM Deployment: A Step-by-Step Guide: The session kicked off with a step-by-step walkthrough of deploying a Virtual Machine using the Azure Portal. From choosing the right VM size to configuring networking and storage options, the Azure Portal provided a user-friendly interface, making the entire process seamless even for those new to cloud deployment.

🛠️ Configuration Choices: Tailoring VMs to Your Needs: The Azure Portal offers a plethora of configuration choices, allowing users to customize VMs according to specific workload requirements. From selecting the operating system to defining storage types and sizes, each decision shapes the foundation of your virtual computing environment.

⚡ Performance Considerations: Optimizing VMs for Efficiency: Understanding the performance implications of VM choices became a crucial aspect of the day. Delving into considerations such as CPU, RAM, and disk types, I learned how to strike the right balance between performance and cost-effectiveness, ensuring efficient resource utilization.

💬 Interactive Learning Experience: What set this day apart was the interactive learning experience offered by the Azure Portal. Real-time feedback and visual representations of configuration choices made the deployment process not just instructive but also engaging, reinforcing the principles of cloud deployment.

🔄 Connecting the Dots: Azure Resource Groups and RBAC in Action: As we deployed VMs, the connection with previous learnings on Azure Resource Groups and Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) became evident. Understanding how VMs fit into the broader Azure ecosystem, and how RBAC can be leveraged to manage these resources, added a layer of depth to the overall cloud comprehension.

🌐 Use Case Integration: Bringing it all together, I integrated the VM deployment into a practical use case. Whether it's running applications, hosting websites, or supporting specific workloads, Azure VMs emerged as versatile entities, capable of serving a myriad of business needs.
