Deploy Azure Container Instances

by Chris Espinoza

This course introduces you to Azure Container Instances (ACI) and related services. You'll learn the foundational skills to effectively manage and deploy containers in the Azure cloud.

What you'll learn

Many cloud engineers struggle to select and deploy the right container solutions in Azure environments, which can lead to inefficient application workflows and services and missed application modernization opportunities. In this course, Deploy Azure Container Instances, you’ll learn how to effectively choose and implement Azure Container Instances (ACI) in your cloud strategy. First, you'll explore the decision-making process for when to use ACI instead of other Azure-based container solutions like Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) and Azure Container Apps (ACA). Next, you'll learn how to create and push container images to the Azure Container Registry (ACR) so they're ready for deployment, as well as how to launch them as Azure Container Instances to consume their services. Finally, you'll learn how to deploy and manage container groups to optimize the performance of your modern solutions and make it easier to manage multiple containers. When you’re finished with this course, you’ll have the skills and knowledge of Azure Container Instances needed to optimize your cloud container management and deployment strategies.
