Deploy to Azure Button

After selecting the desired tag or branch on the opening page of the open-amt-cloud-toolkit repository a Deploy to Azure "button" may be displayed. Left Clicking on this will open an Azure Resource Management (ARM) template which will guide you through deploying an Azure Container Instance (ACI) stack to your Azure environment. What follows is simply an expanded explanation of each of the template fields. Keep in mind, once the stack is deployed, you should still follow the published instruction on how to use the stack. The complete set of instructions are found here and after deploying with this template, you can click forward to the Log into RPS section. (here is a direct link but, keep in mind the version in this direct link's URL may be dated.)
