!! Industry UseCases of Azure Kubernetes Service !!
What is Azure Kubernetes service (AKS) ?
Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) offers serverless Kubernetes, an integrated continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) experience and enterprise-grade security and governance. Unite your development and operations teams on a single platform to rapidly build, deliver and scale applications with confidence.
Features of Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) :-
Accelerate containerised application development
Easily define, deploy, debug and upgrade even the most complex Kubernetes applications and automatically containerise your applications. Use modern application development to accelerate time to market.
Add a full CI/CD pipeline to your AKS clusters with automated routine tasks and set up a canary deployment strategy in just a few clicks. Detect failures early and optimise your pipelines with deep traceability into your deployments.
Gain visibility into your environment with the Kubernetes resources view, control-plane telemetry, log aggregation and container health, accessible in the Azure portal and automatically configured for AKS clusters.
Increased operational efficiency
Rely on built-in automated provisioning, repair, monitoring, and scaling. Get up and running quickly and minimize infrastructure maintenance.
- Easily provision fully managed clusters with Prometheus based monitoring capabilities.
- Use Azure Advisor to optimize your Kubernetes deployments with real-time, personalized recommendations.
- Save on costs by using deeply discounted capacity with Azure Spot.
- Elastically add compute capacity with serverless Kubernetes, in seconds.
- Achieve higher availability and protect applications from datacenter failures using availability zones.
Common uses for Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS)
Migrate your existing application to the cloud, build a complex application that uses machine learning or take advantage of the agility offered by a microservices architecture.
Lift and shift to containers with AKS
Easily migrate existing application to container(s) and run within the Azure managed Kubernetes service (AKS).
Microservices with AKS
Use AKS to simplify the deployment and management of microservices based architecture. AKS streamlines horizontal scaling, self-healing, load balancing, secret management.
Secure DevOps for AKS
DevOps and Kubernetes are better together. Implementing secure DevOps together with Kubernetes on Azure, you can achieve the balance between speed and security and deliver code faster at scale.
Machine Learning model training with AKS
Training of models using large datasets is a complex and resource intensive task. Use familiar tools such as TensorFlow and Kubeflow to simplify training of Machine Learning models.
Azure IoT reference architecture
This reference architecture shows a recommended architecture for IoT applications on Azure using PaaS (platform-as-a-service) components.
How Maersk uses Azure Kubernetes Services
Headquartered in Copenhagen, A.P. Moller — Maersk moves things — a lot of things to a lot of places. As part of its digital transformation efforts, shipping giant A.P. Moller — Maersk needed to streamline IT operations and optimize the value of its IT resources.
Maersk adopted Microsoft Azure, migrated key workloads to the cloud, and modernized its open-source software, which included the adoption of Kubernetes on Azure. Maersk software engineers now spend less time on container software management and more time on innovation and value-added projects. The resulting business value is savings on resource costs, faster solution delivery time, and the ability to attract expert IT talent.
Summary
Azure Kubernetes Service is a powerful service for running containers in the cloud. Best of all, you only pay for the VMs and other resources consumed, not for AKS itself, so it’s easy to try out.
