Bicep is a domain-specific language (DSL) that uses declarative syntax to deploy Azure resources. It is the recommended Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tool for the Azure platform, providing a more straightforward and transparent authoring experience compared to ARM JSON templates. Bicep files are transpiled into standard ARM templates, allowing for version-controlled, repeatable, and automated provisioning of all necessary Azure infrastructure for an AI solution.

A. Power BI is a business analytics and data visualization service, not an infrastructure deployment tool.

C. Azure Monitor is a service for collecting, analyzing, and acting on telemetry from cloud environments.

D. MLflow is an open-source platform for managing the machine learning lifecycle, not for general Azure IaC.
