An Azure Resource Group is a container to manage and monitor all application resources. For Make an Azure Resource Group is also created and the group contains all relevant Make resources. Those are described in more details in the next paragraphs.
The Azure Resource Group has been given a name according a naming convention. This could be yours or defined by Rapid Circle. By default, the Rapid Circle naming convention for Azure Resource Groups is:
| Naming Convention | |
|---|---|
| Format | <DEPT[2|4]>-RG-<SERVICE[3|6]>-<ENVIRONMENT[2|4]> |
| Example | RC-RG-MAKE-DEV |
| RC-RG-MAKE-TST | |
| RC-RG-SCRN-DEMO |
When installing Make, the user account needs to have the permission to either create a Resource Group (and thus becomes Owner) or has the Owner Role for an existing Resource Group.
After installing Make the Resource Group looks like this:
The Resource Group also has several Tags applied. These tags can be used for filtering when managing
resources in the Azure Portal.
