Chapter 8: Working with Offers, Plans, and Quotas
Following on from our last chapter, which talked about authoring ARM templates, we'll now move on to talk about everything we need to know to be able to offer resources and services from Microsoft Azure Stack Hub. We will explain each of the components needed to create an offer on Azure Stack Hub including resources, quotas, and plans. We will provide guidance on the steps required to create a new offer and also touch on delegation and automation. This teaches us everything we need to know to be able to offer services to tenants including the subscription process and how it relates back to the public Azure cloud.
In this chapter, we will be covering the following main topics:
- Planning service offerings
- Creating a plan
- Creating an offer
- Subscribing to an offer
- Delegating offers
- Managing plans and offers
We'll begin with a look at how we need to plan for service offerings.
