AZ-104: Microsoft Azure Administrator Full Course - Azure Cloud Shell

The video tutorial introduces Azure Cloud Shell, a browser-based command line tool for managing Azure resources. It offers flexibility with Bash for Linux users and PowerShell for Windows users. Cloud Shell provides an integrated graphical text editor based on the Monaco editor and automatically authenticates users for seamless access. It is a temporary host that requires an Azure file share and has a 20-minute inactivity timeout for security. Cloud Shell needs its own resource group and storage account, and it uses the same Azure file share for both Bash and PowerShell. Permissions are set as a regular Linux user in Bash.
