Summary

This PR modernizes Azure infrastructure definitions in infra/resources.bicep by updating resource API versions to the latest stable/preview releases and fixing Redis database provisioning reliability for Service Linker.

What changed

  • Updated API versions across networking, security/authorization, PostgreSQL, App Service, monitoring, and Service Linker resources.
  • Kept already-current versions where no newer version was required.
  • Updated Service Linker resources to 2024-07-01-preview.
  • Fixed Redis connector target reliability by changing the Redis default database resource from reference-only (existing) to managed/created in-template.
  • Replaced dynamic CONNECTION_SETTINGS output derived from listConfigurations() with a static expected-name list to avoid secret-output diagnostics noise.

Key reliability fix

Before:

  • Bicep referenced Microsoft.Cache/redisEnterprise/.../databases/default as existing.
  • ARM assumed this subresource already existed.
  • If missing or not yet ready, dependent Service Linker operations could fail with Target resource does not exist / InvalidTargetService.

After:

  • Bicep explicitly creates and manages the Redis default database.
  • Deployment graph guarantees the database resource exists before connector operations target it.

Benefits

  • Enhanced security/compliance through newer Azure APIs.
  • Better feature parity and service integration behavior.
  • Improved deployment reliability and reduced transient provisioning failures.
  • Future-proofing against API deprecation drift.
  • Lower long-term maintenance overhead.

Validation

  • Bicep template formatted and syntax-validated.
  • azd up --no-prompt completed successfully end-to-end after the Redis database fix.

## Benefits of Latest API Versions

1. **Security Patches** — Older API versions may have known vulnerabilities that are fixed in newer versions, protecting your infrastructure.

2. **New Features & Capabilities** — Newer API versions introduce enhanced functionality, better configuration options, and improved resource management.

3. **Bug Fixes** — Earlier versions have bugs that are resolved in later releases, improving reliability and preventing unexpected behavior.

4. **Performance Improvements** — API updates frequently include performance optimizations that reduce deployment times and resource overhead.

5. **Better Compatibility** — Newer versions work seamlessly with the latest Azure services and features, preventing compatibility issues.

6. **Long-term Support** — Older preview versions eventually lose support. Current versions ensure continued support for your infrastructure.

7. **Azure Portal & Tooling** — Better integration with Azure Portal, CLI, and VS Code extensions for improved development experience.

8. **Compliance & Best Practices** — Aligned with Microsoft's security best practices and compliance standards.

9. **Cleaner Code** — Improved schema design makes Bicep templates more maintainable and readable.

10. **Deprecation Avoidance** — Staying current prevents painful migrations from deprecated API versions.

## Testing
The Bicep file has been formatted and verified for syntax correctness.

fix(infra): create Redis default database instead of existing reference
3dc0d93 
- Removes the 'existing' keyword from the Redis database resource to allow creation/management by the template.
- Ensures the databases/default resource actually exists before Service Linker references it.
- Resolves the InvalidTargetService error by ensuring a valid database target is created.

Pull request overview

This PR updates the sample’s Azure infrastructure template (infra/resources.bicep) to newer resource API versions and improves Service Linker reliability by ensuring the Redis Enterprise default database subresource is created and available before connectors target it.

Changes:

  • Updated API versions for networking (private DNS zones/links, private endpoints), Key Vault, RBAC assignments, PostgreSQL Flexible Server, App Service, Operational Insights, and Service Linker.
  • Changed the Redis Enterprise default database from existing (reference-only) to a managed resource created by the template.
  • Replaced the dynamic CONNECTION_SETTINGS output (previously derived from listConfigurations()) with a static list of expected setting names.
