The final project of the course

Project 1: Implementing Azure IaaS

OSS Corporation is evaluating Azure as a deployment platform. To do this, they need to create virtual networks in the above region, create test virtual machines in both virtual networks, establish connectivity between the two networks via VNet peering, and ensure that the connection is properly established.

Project 2: Using Azure Portal to deploy security and PaaS service

OSS Corporation decided to log an employee into the company's default Azure Active Directory and assign a custom RBAC role that allows him to read the network, storage, and VM. Under this custom RBAC, the employee should also be given permission to boot and reboot the VM. Your job is to log in the employee under Standard Azure AD, create the custom RBAC for the Computer Operator role, and provision and deploy the Azure Web App.
