3.1 | Azure AI Resource

These instructions are for self-guided learners only.

In this section, we will manually provision all the necessary Azure resources for this lab. We may later document a scripted way to auto-provision them for efficiency. However, for now, we think manual setup will give you better insights into purpose & configuration of each resource, and contribute to your learning journey.

The Azure AI resource provides the hosting environment for your Azure AI application.
