Q: I want to publish a VM, but instead of creating only one, I want to deploy more than one behind an Azure Load Balancer. Does anybody have guidance on this scenario?
A: One way to solve this is to include the VMs on an Azure VM scaleset. The way this is done is creating an Azure Application that includes the VM scaleset and reference the VM Offer images needed to be replicated. At deployment the customer can decided how many VMs are needed on the environment. The Azure Applications training is here:

The main reason for using an ALB is when one has more than one VM. You can put a VMSS behind a load balancer, but also individual VMs https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/load-balancer/load-balancer-overview
