2. What Azure facility can you use to appropriately categorize resources and provide a use case for doing so.
Applying tags to individual resources will make it easier to search for and identify resources that should be logically grouped together. For example, you would assign a tag named "environment", in which that value can be "development", "QA" or "production". By assigning those resources (VMs, for example) with the appropriate environment tag, you can quickly search for those resources to ensure that they are placed in the correct resource group and possibly avoid accidental deletion of production resources. Another use case for tags can be for the assignment of resources to certain departments for billing purposes. In this case, you can quickly search for resources that fall under the responsibility of the Marketing department and then forward those invoices accordingly.
