Replace each portal link with the full URL using the subscription ID, resource group, and resource name.

Files Created / Modified

List all files generated during the workflow with + for created and ~ for modified.

Monthly Cost Estimate

List each Azure resource with its SKU/tier and approximate monthly cost.

Next Steps

  1. Custom Domain — Point DNS to external IP, update Gateway/Ingress
  2. TLS Certificate — Enable HTTPS via cert-manager or Azure-managed TLS
  3. Monitoring Dashboard — Set up Azure Monitor / Prometheus + Grafana
  4. Scaling — Tune HPA min/max replicas and resource requests/limits
  5. CI/CD Trigger — Push to default branch to trigger pipeline
