Securing service principals in Azure
In today’s cloud environment, automation and application-based access are essential. Service principals enable applications to authenticate and access Azure resources seamlessly. However, their autonomous nature and significant permissions make them risky. This blog post explores how to effectively protect service principals and their access, addressing the challenges and security measures involved.
Azure Verified Modules (AVM)
Azure Verified Modules (AVM) aim to standardize high-quality Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) modules using Bicep capabilities, such as user-defined data types and functions. AVM ensures modules meet criteria, follow modern architecture, and stay updated, with each module assigned to a Microsoft employee for oversight. We’ll explore these standards further in this post.
Hear the world using Azure OpenAI and a Raspberry Pi
This project showcases the build of a simple device to help visually impaired individuals by recognizing objects in images and providing audio feedback. To achieve this I use a Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W, camera, OLED display, speaker, vibration motor, and Azure OpenAI services for image recognition and text-to-speech synthesis. Dive in!
Deploy Entra ID resources declaratively using Azure Bicep
Let’s take a closer look at the new Graph extension and how it works. This extension integrates seamlessly with Azure Bicep, enabling the management of Entra ID resources directly within your Bicep files. By leveraging this new functionality, you can define your entire cloud infrastructure, including identity management components, in a unified and declarative manner. This not only simplifies the deployment process but also enhances the reliability and maintainability of your infrastructure as code (IaC) practices.
Unlocking Azure Policy innovation using Azure OpenAI
Explore Azure Policy automation with OpenAI: Dive into this guide on bulk-generating Azure Policy definitions using Azure OpenAI. Perfect for those experienced with custom policies and seeking efficient advancements.
Azure Bicep features you didn’t know about – Pt. 2
The post introduces user-defined functions in Azure Bicep, emphasizing their practicality in simplifying template creation and streamlining maintenance efforts. We’ll take a look on enabling and implementing these functions, accompanied by a practical example such as abstracting resource properties and standardizing naming conventions.
Azure Bicep features you didn’t know about – Pt. 1
Let’s take a look at user-defined data types in Azure Bicep and how they might help us to further automate and optimize our Bicep deployments.
The power of Azure Policy DeployIfNotExists
We’ll lay our focus on the DeployIfNotExists policy effect. This effect is especially powerful, because, as the name suggests, it allows you to run an ARM deployment depending on certain conditions, like a specific setting or tag of the scoped resource.
