Docker containers on Windows & Linux, also micro-services architecture (e.g. Azure Service Fabric).
I’ve been diving into Kubernetes / AKS Networking lately. I thought I would share some of the insights I stumble upon. We know AKS has two types of networking, basic & advanced, right? Basic provisions its own VNET and exposes only public IPs Advanced uses an existing VNET and exposes private IPs For the latter, … More AKS with Kubenet vs Azure Networking plug-in
In a past article, we looked at how Azure Kubernetes Services (AKS) integrated with Azure Networking. AKS is a managed Kubernetes service in Azure. In this article, we are going to do two things: Deploy an AKS cluster with Advanced Networking using an Azure ARM Template. Deploy a service on the cluster and validate the … More Deploying AKS with ARM Template – Network integration
Azure Kubernetes Services (AKS) is a managed Kubernetes service in Azure. Not only does it provides a managed cluster, it also integrates with Azure services. In this article we’ll explain the integration between Kubernetes’ services and Azure Networking. We won’t give code sample though as we’ll keep that for a future article. Update (30-08-2018): See … More Kubernetes Services in Azure AKS – Network integration
I recently came across a really nice feature of Docker Build and wanted to share it. Building a Docker Image often requires to build binaries. In my case I needed to build a .NET core application. You might need to build a Java App or any other types of apps. I was using my Docker … More Docker multi-stage build
I often found the need to automate Cosmos DB deployments. I like to have users run an ARM template and be ready to go. Automation is key component to repeatability. It enables automated testing and increase agility in many other ways. ARM Templates don’t go beyond a database account. Take the article Setup for populating … More Cosmos DB Configuration Management
We looked at Azure Container Instances. It allows us to launch a container without a cluster and without a VM. It is ideal for bursting scenarios. In this article we’ll look at another scenario for container instances: automation. The limits of ARM Templates A great tool for automation in Azure is ARM Template. ARM Templates … More Using Azure Container Instances to complete automation
In Part 1, we discussed how, by default, replica sets in AKS aren’t highly available. In this article, we conclude the discussion. We propose an approach to deploy highly available replica sets. The objective of this article isn’t to propose a novel way to deploy replica sets in AKS. We see it as an opportunity … More More reliable Replica Sets in AKS – Part 2
