Our Verdict
Although this course offers a gentle introduction to Azure Resource Manager (ARM) templates and their deployment, it may fall short when addressing the deeper needs of advanced students seeking comprehensive knowledge about ARM template design. While the inclusion of basic scenarios provides an adequate launchpad for beginners, its redundancy within the context of the curriculum is somewhat counterproductive. Additionally, despite the use of predefined templates to demonstrate various concepts, this technique does not mirror the practices organizations employ when handling ARM templates. Nevertheless, incorporating hand-on exercises into the lessons and providing supplementary materials with greater depth could enhance learner satisfaction, making this course a formidable starting point for less experienced students or a stepping stone toward more encompassing training resources for advanced professionals
What We Liked
- Covers Azure Resource Manager (ARM) templates basics, including their structure, JSON format, and deployment benefits.
- Demonstrates how to deploy, delete, or update cloud resources using ARM templates.
- Includes real-life programming examples, making the learning experience practical.
Potential Drawbacks
- Content lacks depth for more advanced users looking for in-depth ARM template structure and design.
- Sections are too repetitive; some concepts are redundantly explained without providing additional value.
- Predefined templates are used, reviewed, and deployed through the Azure Portal, which is not consistent with how organizations typically handle ARM template deployments.
