In our application, we are trying to delete and create VMs dynamically as and when we require. For each new version of the application, all old VMs will be deleted and new VMs get created with same names. (We are using new image version for the new VM from Azure compute gallery).
VMs Deletion and Creation are happening very slowly in a sequential manner, hence, if we have 8 VMs, then its taking almost 1 hour to complete all the VMs to the upgraded version.
We are using Azure AD Service principal to interact with Azure from our application.
We are looking for a possible way to increase the speed of VMs deletion and creation in as less time as possible.
Is it possible?
Please share a document related to that.
Hi,
Have you looked at Azure Bicep as a way to deploy the VMs. It will allow you to deploy the VMs in parallel.
Please "Accept the answer" if the information helped you. This will help us and others in the community as well.
How it is possible through Bicep?
VM creation and deletion also possible in less time ?
Might be best to look at the documentation for the language but basically you create the code to deploy the VMs. The code will be build in a way that the deployment happens in parallel. ARM - Azure Resource Manager takes cares of the deployment process and you have a main deployment that you check for the status. Parallel will always be faster than sequential. Deletion is not possible trough Bicep but probably there is some way to make these operations async and check the status rather doing them in sequence.
