Deploying ARM Template for 'Enterprise-scale for small enterprises' into a Brown field Site

Question

Hello,

Unsure if this is the right area to ask this, but here goes.

We currently have an Azure tenancy and in it we run Azure Active Directory for our users that access Office 365 services. We also have just the single VM as well.

Our plan is to ramp up our Azure presence over the coming months and migrate on-premises machines to it. With this in mind I would like to run the following
ARM Template for 'Enterprise-scale for small enterprises' (link below) in our current tenancy as I feel it will allow us to setup the structure correctly for now and going forward.

https://github.com/Azure/Enterprise-Scale/blob/main/docs/reference/treyresearch/README.md

I just want to ensure that the Arm template doesn't impact on our current Azure AD users and their office 365 services in the tenancy in anyway. I don't believe it will, but I can't be sure.

Can anyone tell me that's it's safe to deploy this ARM template in our situation? Maybe someone has already deployed and can comment on it? I'm not overly concerned about the Single VM, it's just the Azure AD and office 365 services.

Thank you

Hi @Sliverlight · Thank you for reaching out.

I reviewed https://github.com/Azure/Enterprise-Scale/blob/main/docs/reference/treyresearch/README.md and can confirm that there won't be any impact of deploying ARM template on Azure AD or O365 services.

The identity related information is stored in Azure AD and the resources are stored in subscription. The template is going to be making changes in the subscription and not in Azure AD/O365 services.
