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

# What is AKS?
**AKS** stands for **Azure Kubernetes Service**. As the name suggests, AKS is the name of the Kubernetes service provided by Microsoft Azure. It went live on the Microsoft cloud portal in June 2018.

AKS is used to deploy and manage Docker containers and container-based applications. AKS provides many facilities, such as:

* Provisioning
* Scaling
* Upgrading resources
* No downtime

Moreover, we don’t need to be an expert to use Azure Kubernetes Service.



# Features of AKS
AKS makes deploying and maintaining the Kubernetes cluster much easier. Apart from that, we have some external features offered by AKS:

* RBAC
* Integration of development tools
* Handle complexities



Get introduced to Azure Kubernetes Service, its features, and how it works.
