AzureFunBytes is a weekly opportunity to learn more about the fundamentals and foundations that make up Azure. It's a chance for me to understand more about what people across the Azure organization do and how they do it. Every week we get together at 11 AM Pacific on Microsoft LearnTV and learn more about Azure.
When: April 29, 2021 11 AM Pacific / 2 PM Eastern
Where: Microsoft LearnTV
This week I welcome Kubernetes co-founder and Microsoft Corporate Vice President, Brendan Burns. Brendan has been there from the beginning and is kind enough to join the show to show off some of the power of using containers along with some new tricks found in Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS).
A container is a standard unit of software that packages up code and all its dependencies so the application runs quickly and reliably from one computing environment to another. It includes everything needed to run the application: code, runtime, system tools, and libraries as well as settings. Multiple containers are run by a single OS kernel, therefore are more lightweight than virtual machines.
Azure Kubernetes Service allows users to maximize their potential to ship apps faster with less operational overhead. AKS provides a standard control plane for managing your Kubernetes clusters backed by the reliability you expect
From the Azure container services product page:
Save costs by lifting and shifting your existing applications to containers, and build microservices applications to deliver value to your users faster. Use end-to-end developer and CI/CD tools to develop, update, and deploy your containerized applications. Manage containers at scale with a fully managed Kubernetes container orchestration service that integrates with Azure Active Directory. Wherever you are in your app modernization journey, accelerate your containerized application development while meeting your security requirements.
Some of our agenda:
- Why containers and Kubernetes?
- VS Code Kubernetes Integration.
- New features included in latest Kubernetes releases.
- Azure ARC and Kubernetes.
