In this Azure Every Day installment, I\u2019d like to go over the differences between the two.<\/p>\n<p>A deployment model is how you\u2019re going to issue out and stand up your Azure resources. As you\u2019re getting your Azure resources in place, you have the choice between Classic and ARM deployment. If you\u2019re new to Azure, you\u2019ll rarely see Classic except for VMs. You may hear Classic being referred to (as in \u201cDon\u2019t do this in Classic\u201d or \u201cThis can only be done in Classic\u201d), but for the most part you\u2019ll be in ARM moving forward.<\/p>\n<p>The primary difference between the two deployment models is how they are managed. Once you deploy, manage or monitor these resources within Azure, if you\u2019re in Classic you\u2019ll be doing everything independently. You\u2019ll be deploying each asset independently and will be managing each asset and resource independently. So, if you have a whole application set for deployment that has 10 resources, that means 10 deployments and 10 independent management components.<\/p>\n<p>And if you are going to remove it, you\u2019re going to remove 10 different resources. ARM allows you to group the resources together as a group. They can be deployed, and looked at or managed, as a group. This is the biggest difference between ARM and Classic deployment model. Some other things to be aware of:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>If you\u2019re using Classic cloud server, it\u2019s only available in Classic. The upgrade means you\u2019re going to have to move it over.<\/li>\n<li>If you\u2019re using VMs, storage, or virtual networks, those can be done in either mode. (Don\u2019t listen to people who tell you it can only be done in Classic.)<\/li>\n<li>The biggest thing to keep in mind, every other resource or new thing within Azure is going to ARM. So, if you want the newest technology, use ARM.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/R3jerDQTvnk\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Need further help?
