Step 2: Search for Virtual Machines in the Azure Portal
Step 3: Create Azure virtual machine
Step 4: Configure the Basic Settings of the Virtual Machine
Step 5: Select the Operating System Image
Step 6: Select the Virtual Machine Size
Step 7: Configure the Administrator Account
Step 8: Configure Networking
Step 9: Review and Create the Virtual Machine
Step 10: Wait for Deployment and Verify the Virtual Machine
In Conclusion, by successfully provisioning your virtual machine in Azure, you have established a powerful, scalable foundation for your cloud workloads. With your compute, networking, and storage components now in place, you are ready to move from deployment to management.
