Resource groups are logical containers for Azure resources (VMs, databases, storage accounts, etc.).You can apply tags for cost tracking and management. You can group resources by lifecycle or project (e.g., all dev resources in one group).
To create a Resource Group in the Azure portal, here’s a clear step-by-step guide:
Steps in Azure Portal
Sign in
Go to Azure Portal and log in with your Azure account.-
Navigate to Resource Groups
- On the left-hand menu, select Resource groups.
- If you don’t see it, use the search bar at the top and type Resource groups.
-
Create New Resource Group
- Click + Create.
- You’ll be taken to the Create a resource group page.
-
Fill in Required Details
- Subscription: Choose the Azure subscription where you want the resource group.
-
Resource group name: Enter a unique name (e.g.
storager). - Region: Select the location (e.g. East US). This determines where metadata is stored.
-
Review + Create
- Click Review + create.
- Azure will validate your settings.
- If everything looks good, click Create.
