Security for Azure Kubernetes Service

Learn how to secure compute services.

Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS), part of Microsoft Azure, is a solution for orchestrating Microsoft-managed containers. It is meant to make it much easier to deploy, scale, and manage containerized applications on a vast scale. The Kubernetes open-source project, an example of a container orchestration system, serves as the foundation for the AKS platform. Because AKS hides the infrastructure underneath, application developers no longer have to worry about how to deploy and manage their software. AKS can be used in various deployment scenarios, including stateless and stateful application workloads, batch processing workloads, and machine learning workloads.

Features of AKS

The features provided by Azure Kubernetes are described as follows:

  • Container orchestration: AKS offers functionality for our containerized applications, such as automatic scaling and load balancing, self-healing, and the ability to recover from failures. It also makes it simple to manage the deployments of our applications and bring out updated versions of those applications.
