When you start using Terraform to manage your cloud infrastructure, a key consideration is where to store the state file that Terraform generates to track changes to your infrastructure. While storing this file locally on your machine is possible, a more scalable and secure approach is to store it in a centralized location that your entire team can access.

As administrators of an Azure subscription, we are always interested in monitoring what is happening in our environment. To do this, Azure gives us a way to do this through activity logs, which record the actions that are performed on our subscription.

We continue with the series of articles on private endpoints. Today I want to show you how to create a private endpoint to privately and securely connect to an Azure file share using Azure PowerShell.

I recently migrated an Azure subscription to a new tenant, and in the key vault resources, I had to perform a few additional steps that I want to show you. So In this week’s article, we’ll look at updating the tenant ID and removing previous access policies and role assignments to the key vault resource once it’s moved to the new subscription.

If you need to perform a quick ad-hoc backup of your virtual machine before maintenance that allows you to take consistent snapshots of all managed disks attached to your virtual machine, you should try Azure restore points.

Hi everyone, and happy new year. In the first post of the year, I want to continue talking about Private Endpoints. In this post, I want to show you how to create a private endpoint to connect securely to an Azure Key Vault, and I’ll also show you how to use two features that Microsoft recently enabled support for Private Endpoint Static IP Configurations and support for customizing the name of the network interface assigned to the private Endpoint.

I think that Private Endpoint is one of the trends that we should focus on and learn more about. For this reason, in the coming months I will publish more content about this simple but powerful technology.

Microsoft last month announced the general availability of a new experience for managing Azure Log Analytics table metadata from the Azure portal. So I think it’s an excellent time to see how to view and edit table properties in Log Analytics workspaces using the Azure CLI and check how these changes are reflected in the Azure portal.

Following the thread of my last post, I want to show you how to take advantage of this functionality by configuring a data lifecycle management policy in your Azure storage account using Azure PowerShell.

In my last article, I showed you how to enable access time tracking on the Azure Storage Blob service. Today I want to show you how to take advantage of this functionality by setting up a data lifecycle management policy in your Azure storage account using Azure CLI.

To manage storage costs, it can help to organize your data based on how often it will be accessed. Azure offers us different levels of access to store blob data most cost-effectively, depending on how we use it.

Blob storage now supports SSH File Transfer Protocol (SFTP). This allows us to use SFTP for file access, transfer, and management. In this post, I will show you how to enable an SFTP endpoint for your blob storage account and configure local user identities to authenticate and connect your storage account with SFTP over port 22.

Today, I want to show you how to configure and apply Microsoft 365 group naming policy in your Azure Active Directory using Powershell. The naming policy applies to creating and editing groups created in Outlook, Microsoft Teams, SharePoint, Exchange, or Planner workloads.

To enable a hierarchical namespace and unlock capabilities such as file and directory-level security on an Azure storage account, you need to upgrade your Azure Blob storage with Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2 capabilities.

Exchange Online Protection (EOP) uses outbound spam policies as part of your organization’s defense against spam. But to increase the effectiveness of outbound spam filtering, you can create custom spam policies with more stringent settings that apply to specific users or groups.

Hi everyone, today I want to show you how to enable backups on an existing VM using Azure command-line tools, and then we will check that it works correctly by doing a quick backup.

In Azure AD, you can see that each device has an owner. The owner is the user who joined the device to Azure AD, which is sometimes the administrator account. If you want to change the owner, you won’t be able to do so through the Azure portal.

In this article, I want to summarize all the information I’ve posted about configuring RDP properties for an Azure virtual desktop environment. First, I will start by indicating which properties are already established by default when creating a host pool.

The series of posts on configuring RDP properties for a host pool is ending. In this latest post, I’ll show you how to configure display settings for your Azure virtual desktop environment using PowerShell and the Azure CLI.

Hi, Jorge is back. As I mentioned in my previous post, I will show you the second part of configuring device redirections for your Azure Virtual Desktop environment using PowerShell and Azure CLI.
