Azure Resource Manager templates

ARM templates are infrastructure as code and allow us to deploy resources automatically in an agile manner. These templates are JSON files that define infrastructure and configuration in a declarative way, specifying resources and properties. We can deploy several resources as a single resource, and modify existing configurations. Just like code, it can be stored in a repository and versioned, and anyone can run the code to deploy similar environments.

ARM templates are then passed to the ARM API, which deploys the specified resources. These can include virtual networks, VMs, or an Azure Databricks workspace.

These templates have two modes of operation, which are Complete or Incremental mode. When we deploy in Complete mode, this deletes any objects that are not specified in the template and the resource group that is being deployed to. Incremental deployment adds additional resources to the existing ones.
