Trying to understand the compute basics examples is one of the better ways to get started with jclouds.
There are two different Azure providers in jclouds: * The "azurecompute" one uses the old Azure API. * The "azurecompute-arm" uses the new ARM API. You'll need to add the "org.apache.jclouds.labs/azurecompute" or "org.apache.jclouds.labs/azurecompute-arm" dependencies to your project in order to use them. In the README for the azurecompute-arm provider you will find the instructions to create an Application in your subscription for jclouds: https://github.com/jclouds/jclouds-labs/tree/master/azurecompute-arm You might also find the following talks useful: https://speakerdeck.com/nacx/rule-the-cloud-with-apache-jclouds http://feathercast.apache.org/apachecon-na-2016-rule-the-cloud-with-apache-jclouds-ignasi-barrera/ (audio recording for the talk) https://github.com/nacx/acna2016-demo (simple source code for the demo) https://speakerdeck.com/nacx/introduction-to-apache-jclouds-apachecon-eu-2014 HTH!
