Azure Container Instances .NET code samples for documentation

This .NET Core 2.0 console application demonstrates several common Azure Container Instances (ACI) operations in C# using the fluent APIs in the Azure Management Libraries for .NET.

The code in this project is ingested into one or more articles on docs.microsoft.com. Modifying the existing #region tags in the sample source may impact the rendering of code snippets on docs.microsoft.com, and is discouraged.

  • Authenticate with Azure
  • Create resource group
  • Create single- and multi-container container groups
    • Expose application container to internet with public DNS name
