Summary
In this module, you looked at the decisions you need to make before creating a virtual machine. These decisions include aspects such as the VM size, types of disks used, operating system image selected, and the types of resources created.
You also looked at the options to create and manage virtual machines in Azure. You saw how easy it is to create and manage VMs using the portal. You also learned when to use Resource Manager templates, PowerShell, the Azure CLI, and the Azure Client SDK.
Finally, you looked at the extensions and services available to more easily administer your VMs.
Clean up
The sandbox automatically cleans up your resources when you're finished with this module.
When you're working in your own subscription, it's a good idea at the end of a project to identify whether you still need the resources you created. Resources that you leave running can cost you money. You can delete resources individually or delete the resource group to delete the entire set of resources.
