Azure VM Image Builder

Azure Image Builder, a tool available from Microsoft's Azure suite of applications and services, lets users simplify the virtual machine (VM) image building process. Users can build images to meet the configuration, compliance, and regulatory needs of an organization. Existing configurations, by connecting existing virtual networks to access routable resources, servers, and services, including configuration servers like Chef, Puppet, and Desired State Configuration (DSC), can be used to start building custom Linux, Windows, and Windows Virtual Desktop images.
