Azure Container Documentation

This section provides comprehensive documentation on Azure's container services, enabling you to build, deploy, and manage containerized applications at scale.

Key Container Services

Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS)

AKS simplifies deploying, managing, and scaling containerized applications and their infrastructure using Kubernetes. AKS is ideal for orchestrating complex microservices and large-scale deployments.

• Getting Started with AKS
• Managing AKS Clusters
• AKS Networking
• AKS Security Best Practices

Azure Container Instances (ACI)

ACI offers the fastest and simplest way to run a container in Azure. It allows you to deploy containers without managing virtual machines or orchestration platforms, perfect for event-driven applications, simple tasks, and dev/test scenarios.

• Understanding ACI
• Deploying Your First Container
• ACI Networking Options

Azure Container Registry (ACR)

ACR is a managed, private Docker registry service based on the open-source Docker Registry 2.0. It allows you to store and manage your private Docker container images and related artifacts.

• Quickstart with ACR
• Securing Your Container Registry
• Geo-Replication in ACR
