3. @nileshgule Cloud service models
4. @nileshgule Options for running containers in Azure ❖ Websites and web apps ❖ Public APIs ❖ Microservices architecture ❖ Backend processing – scales with external events + Host websites, web apps and APIs ❖ Simple one-off container ❖ Full-blown container orchestration platform Comparing Container Apps with other Azure container options | Microsoft Docs
5. @nileshgule
6. @nileshgule Azure Container Apps ❖Serverless containers for Microservices ❖Build modern apps on open source ❖Focus on apps, not on infrastructure ❖Seamlessly port to Kubernetes
7. @nileshgule Run Containers at scale ❖Scale with flexible serverless containers ❖KEDA supported scale triggers including Azure Event Hub, Apache Kafka, RabbitMQ, MongoDB, MySQL, PostgreSQL etc. ❖Robust autoscaling without managing complex infrastructure ❖Scale to zero and pay only for use by the second
8. @nileshgule Accelerate developer productivity ❖Build microservices, APIs, event processing workers, and background jobs using containers. ❖Polyglot programming and accelerate development with built-in Distributed Application Runtime (Dapr) integration to simplify common tasks like event processing, pub/sub and service invocation. ❖Streamline application lifecycle tasks such as upgrades and versioning, traffic shifting, service discovery, and monitoring ❖Setup code-to-cloud pipelines using GitHub Actions.
