An Apache Spark-based analytics platform optimized for Azure.
It seems like you are experiencing an issue where the Azure portal is not allowing you to create any resources, even though you have the necessary permissions and have done this before. You have verified that your subscription is active and managed by you, and the Azure status page shows no outages. Yet, the Create button is disabled and unresponsive.
This kind of situation is usually caused by a transient issue with the Azure portal itself or something client-side like browser caching or session tokens. Even though the Azure status page shows all systems green, it does not always capture region-specific or portal UI related glitches.
To isolate the problem, first try clearing your browser cache or using a private/incognito window. Sometimes cached sessions or stale tokens can cause the UI to malfunction. If that does not help, try switching to another browser altogether. This rules out browser specific issues.
If the problem persists, it is worth testing whether this issue is specific to the portal UI or more fundamental. You can try creating a resource using the Azure CLI or PowerShell. If you are able to create resources using those tools, then the issue is clearly with the portal front-end. In that case, it is best to wait for a few hours or report the bug via the portal feedback button or support.
You should also ensure the required resource providers are registered in your subscription. Sometimes, if a provider like Microsoft.Compute or Microsoft.Storage is not registered, the portal disables the creation button without giving a meaningful error. You can check this in the “Resource Providers” section under your subscription in the portal, or run a simple Azure CLI command to register it.
If none of these workarounds solve the issue, and especially if it affects others in your team as well, I would recommend logging a support ticket with Microsoft. Even though the portal may appear fine generally, some issues especially in the UI layer may not be reflected in the global status page.
