What is the necessary resource to create before using Azure Cloud Shell?

  1. Container

  2. Storage Account

  3. App Services web app

  4. Virtual Machine

The correct answer is: Storage Account

To use Azure Cloud Shell, a storage account is necessary. When you first start Azure Cloud Shell, the service automatically provisions a storage account for you or prompts you to create one if you do not already have one. This storage account is essential because it stores your Cloud Shell configuration files, scripts, and other resources you might need while working in the shell. It ensures that your environment is persistent and that your data is retained across sessions. The other listed options, while useful for various Azure functionalities, are not required for Cloud Shell to operate. Containers and virtual machines serve different purposes related to hosting applications and managing workloads in Azure, and App Services web apps pertain to deploying and running web applications, none of which are prerequisites for utilizing Azure Cloud Shell.
