hello

With the huge shift in the technological world, from running servers on local premises to the cloud, the need for containerization has increased. Kubernetes is a powerful open-source platform to manage containers and their services. This course provides an understanding of Docker and Kubernetes.

You will start with the basics of Docker and an introduction to containers and images. Next, you'll learn to create Dockerfile for building images. Then, you’ll learn about Kubernetes, Kubernetes clusters, nodes, and their working. You will finish this course by setting up your own Kubernetes cluster on top of Azure and using the Helm chart to manage it.

In the 4 years (2015-2019), Kubernetes job searches grew by 2,125% and are continuing to grow. Therefore, understanding the basics of Kubernetes, its architecture, and its working would help you land roles like that of a DevOps engineer and a cloud architect.

Running Kubernetes Cluster using Azure Kubernetes Service

# Steps to create an AKS cluster
The steps to create an AKS cluster are described below.

## Step 1: Export the environment variables
Syntax:
`export RESOURCE_GROUP=<resource group name>`

This captures the specified resource group as a template and saves it to a JSON file.

`export CLUSTER_NAME=<cluster_name>` 

This specifies the cluster name created.

## Step 2: Create a resource group

Syntax:
`az group create --name $RESOURCE_GROUP --location eastus`

The command above creates a resource group with the specified name in the East US region.


## Step 2: Create a resource group

Syntax:
`az group create --name ＄RESOURCE_GROUP --location eastus`

The command above creates a resource group with the specified name in the East US region.
