Regions

Azure offers more global regions


than any other cloud provider
with 60+ regions representing
over 140 countries

• Regions are made up of one or more datacenters in close proximity.

• Provide flexibility and scale to reduce customer latency.

• Preserve data residency with a comprehensive compliance offering.


Availability zones
Azure Region
• Provide protection against downtime due to datacenter
failure. Availability Zone 1 Availability Zone 2

• Physically separate datacenters within the same region.

• Each datacenter is equipped with independent power,


cooling, and networking.

• Connected through private fiber-optic networks.

Availability Zone 3

Explore the Azure Global infrastructure

Explore the Azure global


infrastructure

1. Select Explore the Globe (after


intro).
2. Notice the different icons
(geography, regions, points of
presence (PoP), and so on).
3. Find your location on the globe,
then find the nearest PoP and
region to your location.
Resource groups
Resource groups
(web + DB, VM, Storage) in one group
A resource group is a container to manage
and aggregate resources in a single unit.
• Resources can exist in only one resource
group. OR

• Resources can exist in different regions.


• Resources can be moved to different
resource groups.
Web and Virtual
DB machine Storage
• Applications can utilize multiple resource resource resource resource
groups. group group group
Azure Subscriptions

An Azure subscription provides you with


authenticated and authorized access to Azure
accounts.
• Billing boundary: generate separate billing
reports and invoices for each subscription.
• Access control boundary: manage and
control access to the resources that users can
provision with specific subscriptions.
Azure virtual machines

Azure Virtual Machines (VM) are software emulations of


physical computers.
• Includes virtual processor, memory, storage, and
networking.
• IaaS offering that provides total control and
customization.
VM scale sets

Scale sets provide a load-balanced opportunity to


automatically scale resources.
• Scale out when resource needs increase.

• Scale in when resource needs are lower.


VM availability sets
Plan Virtual Machines

Start with the network

Name the virtual machine

Choose a location
• Each region has different hardware and service capabilities
• Locate Virtual Machines as close as possible to your users
and to ensure compliance and legal obligations

60+ Azure regions


Consider pricing Available in 140 countries
Determine Virtual Machine Sizing

Type Description

General purpose Balanced CPU-to-memory ratio.

Compute optimized High CPU-to-memory ratio.

Memory optimized High memory-to-CPU ratio.

Storage optimized High disk throughput and I/O.

Specialized virtual machines targeted for heavy graphic rendering


GPU
and video editing..

High performance compute Our fastest and most powerful CPU virtual machines

✔️ Share VM images in a compute gallery


Determine Virtual Machine Storage
Each Azure VM has two or more disks: Azure VM (Windows)
• OS disk
• Temporary disk (contents can be lost)
• Data disks (optional)

C:\ D:\ F:\


OS disk Temporary disk Data disk
OS and data disks reside in Azure Storage accounts:
• Azure-based storage service
• Standard (HDD, SSD) or Premium (SSD), or Ultra (SSD)

Azure VMs use managed disks Azure blob


Create Virtual Machines in the Portal
Basic (required) – Project details,
Administrator account,
Inbound port rules

Disks – OS disk type, data disks

Networking – Virtual networks,


load balancing

Management – Monitoring,
Auto-shutdown, Backup

Advanced – Add additional


configuration, agents, scripts or
applications
Connect to Virtual Machines

Bastion Subnet for RDP/SSH Remote Desktop Protocol for Secure Shell Protocol for Linux
through the Portal over SSL Windows-based Virtual Machines based Virtual Machines
Connect to Windows Virtual Machines

Remote Desktop Protocol


(RDP) creates a GUI session
and accepts inbound traffic
on TCP port 3389

WinRM creates a command-


line session so you can run
scripts
Connect to Linux Virtual Machines

Authenticate with a SSH SSH is an encrypted There are public and


public key or password connection protocol that private keys
allows secure logins over
unsecured connections
Implement Virtual Machine Extensions
Extensions are small applications that provide
post-deployment VM configuration and
automation tasks

Managed with Azure CLI, PowerShell, Azure


Resource Manager templates, and the Azure portal

Bundled with a new VM deployment or run against


any existing system

Different for Windows and Linux machines


Implement Custom Script Extensions

Extension scripts can be simple


or complex

Extensions have 90 minutes to run

Double check dependencies to


ensure availability

Account for any errors that


might occur

Protect/encrypt sensitive information


Implement Desired State Configuration

Configuration block(s) have a configuration IISInstall


name {
Node “localhost”
Node blocks define the {
computers or VMs that you are
configuring WindowsFeature IIS
{
Resource block(s) configure the Ensure = “Present”
resource and its properties Name = “Web-Server”
}
There are many built-in }
configuration resources }
