You plan to automata the deployment of resources to Azure subscriptions. What is a difference between using Azure Blueprints and Azure Resource Manager (ARM) templates?
A.
ARM templates remain connected to the deployed resources.
B.
Only blueprints can contain policy definitions.
C.
Only ARM templates can contain policy definitions.
D.
Blueprints remain connected to the deployed resources.
Answer is D
The Blueprint preserves the relationship between the deployed application and blueprint components. Whereas in the case of the ARM template, there remains no active relationship between your deployed application and template. This connection helps in tracking and auditing the resources.
Given answer D is correct as per
Nearly everything that you want to include for deployment in Azure Blueprints can be accomplished with an ARM template. However, an ARM template is a document that doesn't exist natively in Azure - each is stored either locally or in source control or in Templates (preview). The template gets used for deployments of one or more Azure resources, but once those resources deploy there's no active connection or relationship to the template.
With Azure Blueprints, the relationship between the blueprint definition (what should be deployed) and the blueprint assignment (what was deployed) is preserved. This connection supports improved tracking and auditing of deployments. Azure Blueprints can also upgrade several subscriptions at once that are governed by the same blueprint.

On July 11, 2026, Blueprints (Preview) will be deprecated. Migrate your existing blueprint definitions and assignments to Template Specs and Deployment Stacks. Blueprint artifacts are to be converted to ARM JSON templates or Bicep files used to define deployment stacks. To learn how to author an artifact as an ARM resource, see:

D. Blueprints remain connected to the deployed resources.
The main difference between using Azure Blueprints and Azure Resource Manager (ARM) templates is that Azure Blueprints remain connected to the deployed resources, enabling you to track and audit the compliance of those resources with the original blueprint definition. Azure Blueprints allow you to manage and monitor the deployed resources over time, whereas ARM templates are a one-time deployment tool that does not maintain a connection to the resources after deployment.
