How to Build an Azure Automation Lab

Thanks, Preston-K-Parsard for all the details 🙂

Few suggestions on automation which can help users to deploy and it will be used widely:

1)  Current constraint to use this automation is the cost if any admin want to test it, as it includes 9 VMs and other things

2) This 9 VMs are rarely required for basic testing

Suggestion :

1) VM required for testing (AD and Jumbox mandatory) - SQL, Web, Linux, PKI - In this user will select whatever service is required to test and proceed to the next step. (Here not all services are required by all so you can allow to choose which service he can select- multiple selection)

2)  You add the option in script "Availability Set Required" = Yes/No If yes it will continue with 2 VMs in each service as current automation and if No then it will create 1 VM each service which is requested by user.

This change will really help a lot from cost perspective which will allow users for easy implementation and testing without any worries.

Thanks again for this great automation, this is just a suggestion 🙂
