Create a database in Azure
We will need a database to store related data required by the RCL Could Services applications. You can use an existing database in Azure and need not create a new one if you want to save on cost.

Create a database
Login to the Azure Portal and click the New button, then search for 'Database'. Select the SQL Database from the 'Results'
Click the Create button to create a new database

Database Name - the name for the database
Subscription - your azure subscription
Resource group - create a new resource group and assign it a name
