DEPLOYING A WEB APPLICATION WITH ARM TEMPLATE AND AZURE CLI

Azure provides a robust environment for deploying and managing web applications using ARM templates and Azure CLI. ARM templates are JSON or Bicep files that specify the infrastructure and configuration of Azure resources, enabling repeatable deployments and infrastructure-as-code practices. Azure CLI complements this approach by providing commands to manage Azure resources from a terminal or shell script. To deploy a web app, you need an active Azure subscription, Azure CLI installed and configured, a text editor, and basic knowledge of JSON and Azure Web Apps. The step-by-step guide involves preparing an ARM template, creating a parameter file, logging in to Azure, creating a resource group, deploying the ARM template, connecting a GitHub repository to Azure, and testing the web app. The ARM template defines the required resources, and the parameter file defines the values for the template parameters. The Azure CLI is used to deploy the ARM template and connect the GitHub repository to Azure. By following this guide, you can ensure a consistent and automated approach to managing Azure resources. You can extend the template to include additional configurations like custom domains, SSL bindings, or CI/CD pipelines.
