ARM templates streamline the process of provisioning complex solutions in the cloud. In this scenario, we’ll be leveraging two ARM templates from the Azure Quick Start template gallery:
- Deploy VNET and Active Directory Domain Controllers
- Deploy Windows Server 2016 Storage Spaces Direct (S2D) Cluster to existing VNET
These templates can be used together, as shown in the video, or separately to provision just a portion of the overall solution.
