Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated: 1 00:00:01,100 --> 00:00:07,340 The next topic I want to discuss is resource groups now, we have already seen resource groups in the 2 00:00:07,640 --> 00:00:13,670 demo we had with the Asia portal when we created one, but we didn't explain what exactly is a resource 3 00:00:13,670 --> 00:00:13,970 group. 4 00:00:14,270 --> 00:00:16,430 And this is what I want to do now. 5 00:00:17,030 --> 00:00:20,000 So what is actually a resource group? 6 00:00:20,420 --> 00:00:25,070 So a resource group is a logic container for resources. 7 00:00:25,460 --> 00:00:33,320 It is used for grouping resources, biologic boundary, and we will see some examples for it later. 8 00:00:33,770 --> 00:00:40,280 It is also, as we said before, completely free and you can create as many resource groups as you want. 9 00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:42,080 It won't cost you a cent. 10 00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:49,980 Now, some examples of using resource groups are a resource group for development test and production. 11 00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:52,580 So in this case, three resource groups. 12 00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:59,900 One will contain all the development resources, one will contain all the resources, and the last one 13 00:00:59,910 --> 00:01:01,910 will have all the production resources. 14 00:01:02,630 --> 00:01:11,900 Another example is to separate resource groups by teams so every team will have its resources in resource 15 00:01:11,900 --> 00:01:12,260 group. 16 00:01:13,230 --> 00:01:19,350 Now, this logical grouping will come handy when identifying the types of resources you have, so, 17 00:01:19,350 --> 00:01:25,140 for example, you might have a resource group named Production r.G and others will see later. 18 00:01:25,140 --> 00:01:32,070 R.G. is a common suffix of resource group name, and you will see immediately that every resource in 19 00:01:32,070 --> 00:01:36,510 this resource group belongs to the production environment of the system. 20 00:01:37,290 --> 00:01:43,170 Now it's important to discuss also the difference between resource groups and subscriptions, because 21 00:01:43,170 --> 00:01:49,830 you might remember that when we talked about subscription, we said that a subscription is also a logical 22 00:01:49,830 --> 00:01:54,190 container in that it contains the values resources you provision in the cloud. 23 00:01:54,690 --> 00:01:59,750 So what exactly is the difference between resource groups and subscriptions? 24 00:02:00,330 --> 00:02:01,020 So let's see. 25 00:02:01,410 --> 00:02:06,210 When we look at the hierarchy of resources in Asia, it looks like this. 26 00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:13,290 So as you can see from top to bottom at the top, we have management groups which we haven't discussed 27 00:02:13,290 --> 00:02:22,470 yet, and then we have subscriptions and then resource groups and only then we can go to the resources 28 00:02:22,620 --> 00:02:23,250 themselves. 29 00:02:23,670 --> 00:02:30,870 Now, what's important about subscriptions is that they have associated accounts and they are a cost 30 00:02:30,870 --> 00:02:31,370 center. 31 00:02:31,710 --> 00:02:38,340 So as you saw when we created our own account in Edgell, we immediately and automatically got a new 32 00:02:38,340 --> 00:02:43,110 subscription and the account was attached to this subscription in addition. 33 00:02:43,110 --> 00:02:50,280 And you will see that later when calculating the cost of resources, then the cost is always PILT subscription. 34 00:02:50,460 --> 00:02:55,790 So you can think of a subscription as an account little container of resources. 35 00:02:56,220 --> 00:03:02,880 And then if we have the resource groups, which are logical resources containers, so the resources 36 00:03:02,940 --> 00:03:09,420 themselves are grouped inside resource groups and this is true for almost all the resources. 37 00:03:09,990 --> 00:03:16,440 So again, you can think about subscription as a cost center and they think that your account is attached 38 00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:20,880 to and the resource groups are the actual containers for the resources. 39 00:03:21,540 --> 00:03:23,190 Now, what about management groups? 40 00:03:23,590 --> 00:03:28,140 We didn't discuss it before and we are not going to discuss it further in the course. 41 00:03:28,670 --> 00:03:33,340 All you need to know is that management group is a place to manage subscriptions. 42 00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:39,690 So if an organization have multiple subscriptions, then they can all be managed using management groups. 43 00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:49,020 Now, resource groups have naming conventions and its best practice to have an R.G. or R.G. in capital 44 00:03:49,350 --> 00:03:51,430 as part of the resource group name. 45 00:03:52,170 --> 00:03:55,740 Now, this could be prefix or suffix. 46 00:03:56,220 --> 00:04:04,440 For example, you can call the resource group like this R.G. projective or like these financial resources 47 00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:04,980 r.g. 48 00:04:05,940 --> 00:04:11,540 So that's a very good practice and you should make sure your resource groups are following the standard. 49 00:04:12,990 --> 00:04:17,440 Now, almost every resource in Asia is placed in the resource group. 50 00:04:17,790 --> 00:04:23,550 So, for example, when you will create a virtual machine, then you will have to select the resource 51 00:04:23,550 --> 00:04:26,040 group in which it's going to be located. 52 00:04:27,850 --> 00:04:33,110 So let's go back to the bottle and see how we use resource groups for creating resources. 53 00:04:33,180 --> 00:04:38,980 Now we want to actually create a resource, but we will just see where exactly we need to select the 54 00:04:38,980 --> 00:04:40,770 resource group for the resource. 55 00:04:41,110 --> 00:04:47,770 So let's go again to the search bar, as usual, and that starts type virtual machines and let's pick 56 00:04:47,770 --> 00:04:54,040 virtual machines from here and click, add and select virtual machine. 57 00:04:55,630 --> 00:04:59,420 So now we see the page for creating a new virtual machine. 58 00:04:59,650 --> 00:05:03,720 Now you can safely ignore all the parameters and fields right here. 59 00:05:03,910 --> 00:05:06,190 We will discuss it later in this course. 60 00:05:06,430 --> 00:05:11,190 But what I want to show you is this the resource group. 61 00:05:11,500 --> 00:05:16,780 So as you can see, for almost every resource we need to select this subscription. 62 00:05:16,780 --> 00:05:21,120 And right now we have only one subscription we can select from. 63 00:05:21,490 --> 00:05:25,660 And after selecting the subscription, we need to select the resource group. 64 00:05:25,930 --> 00:05:31,900 Now, if we don't have any resource group that we can put the resource in, then we will create a new 65 00:05:31,900 --> 00:05:32,170 one. 66 00:05:32,170 --> 00:05:38,980 But there is no such thing as creating a new virtual machine, which is not placed inside a resource 67 00:05:38,980 --> 00:05:39,340 group. 68 00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:45,790 So resource groups allow us to organize our resources in logical groups, which will make the whole 69 00:05:45,790 --> 00:05:50,050 work with them extremely easy, especially when we will have hundreds of them. 7853
