Azure Portal
The web-based graphical interface for managing Azure resources.
The Azure Portal is a browser-based console at portal.azure.com that provides a graphical interface for creating, configuring, and monitoring Azure resources. It presents each resource’s settings through context-sensitive blades (panels) and supports customizable dashboards so teams can surface the metrics most relevant to their work. For AZ-900, the key distinction is that the Portal is the visual, point-and-click tool, while Azure CLI and Azure PowerShell perform the same tasks through commands and Cloud Shell brings both into the browser. The Portal suits one-off tasks and exploration; repetitive or automated work favors the command-line tools.
