ARM Templates Orchestration | Set deployment order and pull resource information

If you need to deploy multiple services and combine them together using ARM templates, then this episode is for you. This time we are going to look at orchestration using dependencies and references.
In this episode I give you introduction to orchestration with dependencies and references for Azure Resource Manager (ARM) templates. This is how you can achieve maximum parallelization while maintain proper deployment order.
Source code for demos: github.com/MarczakIO/azure4ev...
In this episode live demo of
- Deploying Storage Account and Containers
- Deploying Storage Account and Containers as child resources
- Visualizing ARM templates with VS Code extensions
- Deploying Web App (App Service) with App Service Plan
- Deploying Web App setting with Storage Account connection string using list functions
Next steps for you after watching the video
1. Set deployment order with dependencies documentation

2. What are child resources

Thanks very much. Agree that depends section based on reference id is more solid approach.

[@CosmeJunior]

I can't thank you enough for all you do Adam

My pleasure Tony! Thanks!

[@dabay200]

Excellent explanation and demos 😃

[@AdamMarczakYT]

Many thanks!

[@supastar25]

Great stuff...thanks!

[@mackstro]

Liked the video, easy to follow such an important concept. How about a video on the deployment order/process for linked templates?

[@AdamMarczakYT]

I try to provide knowledge and building blocks so that people can use that knowledge and build their own solutions. if you watch my linked templates video and orchestration video you should be able to use this knowledge to do this. Thanks for watching and commenting :)

Very useful 🙏🙏

Thanks!

[@amritarora8897]

Marvellous :)

Hi, when you import the template and click on purchase are you incurring in a cost? I am not clear on what you are purchasing. Thank you for these videos.

[@AdamMarczakYT]

Hey. Imagine ARM template is just like a basket in the shop. You purchase all the services that are part of your ARM template based on their pricing. There is no extra cost by using templates itself. But if you purchase services that are not free then yes you will start paying as soon as they are provisioned.

[@nanurca]

@@AdamMarczakYT Thank you for clarifying this so quickly :)

[@MohammadFazil]

Hi Adam, Can we've a video for API management and their services and how to write ARM template for APIM with api/product/subscription etc 🙂

[@SchottGun76]

Hello. What snippets are you using?

[@AdamMarczakYT]

Hey, if you mean visual studio code then those are from ARM Templates extension from MS. If you mean the template code sample then they are always linked in the video description.

[@gabhansiosal565]

I'm confused. I'm trying to control the deployment order of artifacts in my Blueprint. Microsoft say this is done via the depends on function (docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/governance/blueprints/concepts/sequencing-order) but everywhere else I read says that dependent resources must exist in the same ARM template...Can anyone clarify this please?

[@AdamMarczakYT]

Check this example if it will work for you. You reference artifacts by their file names without extension.
github.com/Azure/azure-blueprints/tree/master/samples/101-boilerplate
If shows example of DepedsOn on the policyAssignment in the separate artifact file. Hope this is what you are looking form. Also check the docs on official blueprint repo which talk about this too github.com/Azure/azure-blueprints

[@gabhansiosal565]

@@AdamMarczakYT Thank you so much for those links! It all makes sense now. I'd been using the portal to compile my blueprints instead of powershell to import blueprint.json and relevant artifact templates 👍

[@fudhater8592]

Will you be doing Azure ML anytime soon?

[@AdamMarczakYT]

I'm planning to do Azure Machine Learning Service, not sure about the Studio as I don't see much traction. Although currently I'm finishing ARM series and then doing AZ-900 course so maybe after that.

[@MrHussain249]

hey adam why you are not doing videos ?

[@jacksonlloyd1519]

Some weird audio bug @11:49

[@AdamMarczakYT]

Oh you are so right. Seems like another audit got overlaid there. Weird. Thanks for letting me know, too bad UA-cam doesn't allow to fix videos after upload :(
