Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS)

Highly available, secure, and fully managed Kubernetes service

Explore Kubernetes learning path

Ship faster, operate with ease, and scale confidently

The fully managed Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) makes deploying and managing containerized applications easy. It 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.

Elastic provisioning of additional capacity without the need to manage the infrastructure. Add event-driven autoscaling and triggers through KEDA

Faster end-to-end development experience and integration with Visual Studio Code Kubernetes tools, Azure DevOps, and Azure Monitor

Advanced identity and access management using Azure Active Directory, and dynamic rules enforcement across multiple clusters with Azure Policy

Orchestration of containers across 29 regions and growing, in the public cloud, in Azure Stack, or on IoT edge devices

Accelerate containerized application development

Easily define, deploy, debug, and upgrade even the most complex Kubernetes applications, and automatically containerize your applications. Develop and test microservices-based applications without mocking up dependencies using Dev Spaces.

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 optimize your pipelines with deep traceability into your deployments.

Gain visibility into your environment with control-plane telemetry, log aggregation, and container health, accessible in the Azure portal and automatically configured for AKS clusters.

Manage Kubernetes with ease

Easily provision clusters using the CLI or infrastructure-as-code tools such as Terraform. Minimize infrastructure maintenance using automated upgrades, repair, monitoring, and scaling.

Elastically provision additional compute capacity in serverless Kubernetes in seconds without worrying about managing the infrastructure.

Achieve higher availability and protect applications from datacenter failures using redundancies across availability zones.

Build on an enterprise-grade, more secure foundation

Run any workload in the cloud, at the edge, or as a hybrid

Orchestrate any type of workload running in the environment of your choice. Whether you want to move .NET applications to Windows Server containers, modernize Java applications in Linux containers, or run microservices applications in the public cloud, at the edge, or in hybrid environments, Azure has the solution for you.

Common uses for Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS)

Use Kubernetes to 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.

    1. Overview
    2. Flow

    Overview

    Easily migrate existing application to container(s) and run within the Azure managed Kubernetes service (AKS). Control access via integration with Azure Active Directory and access SLA-backed Azure Services such as Azure Database for MySQL using OSBA (Open Service Broker for Azure) for your data needs.

    Flow

    1. 1 User converts existing application to container(s) & publishes container image(s)to the Azure Container Registry
    2. 2 Using Azure Portal or command line, user deploys containers to AKS cluster
    3. 3 Azure Active Directory is used to control access to AKS resources
    4. 4 Easily access SLA-backed Azure Services such as Azure Database for MySQL using OSBA (Open Service Broker for Azure)
    5. 5 Optionally, AKS can be deployed with a VNET virtual network

    Overview

    Use AKS to simplify the deployment and management of microservices based architecture. AKS streamlines horizontal scaling, self-healing, load balancing, secret management.

    Flow

    1. 1 Developer uses IDE such as Visual Studio to commit changes to Github
    2. 2 Github triggers a new build on VSTS
    3. 3 VSTS packages microservices as containers and pushes them to the AzureContainer Registry
    4. 4 Containers are deployed to AKS cluster
    5. 5 Users access services via apps and website
    6. 6 Azure Active Directory is used to secure access to the resources
    7. 7 Microservices use databases to store and retrieve information
    8. 8 Administrator accesses via a separate admin portal
  • Secure DevOps pour AKSDevOps et Kubernetes fonctionnent mieux ensemble. L’implémentation sécurisée de DevOps avec Kubernetes sur Azure vous permet d’atteindre un équilibre entre vitesse et sécurité et de fournir du code plus rapidement à grande échelle. Placez des glissières de sécurité autour des processus de développement en utilisant CI/CD avec des contrôles de stratégies dynamiques et accélérez la boucle de rétroaction avec une surveillance constante. Utilisez Azure Pipelines pour assurer une livraison rapide tout en assurant la mise en œuvre des stratégies critiques avec Azure Policy. Azure vous offre une observabilité en temps réel pour vos pipelines de build et de mise en production, ainsi que la possibilité d’appliquer facilement un audit de conformité et des reconfigurations.123456789

    Overview

    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. Put guardrails around the development processes using CI/CD with dynamic policy controls and accelerate feedback loop with constant monitoring. Use Azure Pipelines to deliver fast while ensuring enforcement of critical policies with Azure Policy. Azure provides you real-time observability for your build and release pipelines, and the ability to apply compliance audit and reconfigurations easily.

    Flow

    1. 1 Developers rapidly iterate, test, and debug different parts of an application together in the same Kubernetes cluster
    2. 2 Code is merged into a GitHub repository, after which automated builds and tests are run by Azure Pipelines
    3. 3 Container image is registered in Azure Container Registry
    4. 4 Kubernetes clusters are provisioned using tools like Terraform; Helm charts, installed by Terraform, define the desired state of app resources and configurations
    5. 5 Operators enforce policies to govern deployments to the AKS cluster
    6. 6 Release pipeline automatically executes pre-defined deployment strategy with each code change
    7. 7 Policy enforcement and auditing is added to CI/CD pipeline using Azure Policy
    8. 8 App telemetry, container health monitoring, and real-time log analytics are obtained using Azure Monitor
    9. 9 Insights used to address issues and fed into next sprint plans
  • Mettez à l’échelle facilement avec AKS et ACIMettez à l’échelle facilement avec AKS et ACI443321
    1. Overview
    2. Flow

    Overview

    Use the AKS virtual node to provision pods inside ACI that start in seconds. This enables AKS to run with just enough capacity for your average workload. As you run out of capacity in your AKS cluster, scale out additional pods in ACI without any additional servers to manage.

    Flow

    1. 1 User registers container in Azure Container Registry
    2. 2 Container images are pulled from the Azure Container Registry
    3. 3 AKS virtual node, a Virtual Kubelet implementation, provisions pods inside ACI from AKS when traffic comes in spikes.
    4. 4 AKS and ACI containers write to shared data store
