Course Prerequisites

  • Basic understanding of Azure cloud services and Azure portal.
  • Familiarity with containerization concepts and tools like Docker is recommended.
  • Some experience with Linux and command-line operations will be beneficial.
  • Experience with DevOps and understanding of CI/CD pipelines will help in fully grasping the course content, but is not required.
  • No prior experience with Kubernetes is required, though understanding the basics of containers will help.

Learning Objectives

By the end of the AZ-1001: Deploy and Manage Containers using Azure Kubernetes Service course, you will be able to:

  1. Set up and configure an Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) cluster using Azure portal and Azure CLI.
  2. Deploy containerized applications into AKS and manage their lifecycle from development to production.
  3. Configure Kubernetes networking and load balancing, including setting up services, ingress controllers, and network policies.
  4. Monitor and troubleshoot Kubernetes clusters and applications using Azure Monitor, Log Analytics, and Azure Metrics.
  5. Implement storage solutions for containerized applications, including Azure Files and Azure Disks with Kubernetes volumes.
  6. Automate deployments and scaling of applications using Kubernetes controllers, such as Deployments, StatefulSets, and DaemonSets.
  7. Secure the AKS environment by applying best practices for authentication, role-based access control (RBAC), and network security policies.
  8. Integrate AKS with Azure DevOps to create CI/CD pipelines for continuous deployment and management of Kubernetes applications.
  9. Optimize resource usage and cost management by configuring Kubernetes autoscaling features, such as Horizontal Pod Autoscaler (HPA) and Cluster Autoscaler.
  10. Implement best practices for managing containerized applications on Azure using Kubernetes, including high availability, resilience, and disaster recovery.

Target Audience

This course is ideal for:

  • Cloud developers and DevOps engineers looking to improve their expertise in deploying and managing containerized applications using Azure Kubernetes Service.
  • IT professionals who want to transition to cloud-native technologies like Kubernetes and containers within the Azure environment.
