How to build and deploy a containerized app to Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) | Azure Friday

Jay Gordon (@jaydestro) joins Donovan Brown (@donovanbrown) to show how to build a containerized React application and deploy it to production with Azure Kubernetes Service. He'll also show how to configure an Azure Active Directory service principal to enable Role-Based Authentication, which enables you to dynamically create and manage other Azure resources.

this is skipping on everything that someone learning this would actually be interested. like how DO i create the required service principal? how do i connect the ACR to the AKS? all i've seen is you copy pasting commands and brushing over them (without really explaining) appreciate you taking the time, but its not really useful like that

[@IvanRosaT]

OMG! Alex you nailed everything I was thinking. i think this video is for someone that's already been in the biz for DevOps for quiet sometime...

[@ricanteja]

I'm going to have to watch this at least 5 more times. I feel like my brain is melting lol.

[@BijouBakson]

Haha...

This video is for someone who is already clear with their basics and now wants to do some hands on. Thanks for this quick explanation. I had done some POCs on Docker, AKS and NGINX in 2019. After that I moved into a project where I worked on Azure DevOps. Now I have got a chance to work on AKS again and I needed to remember what I did back then. This was a quick way to brush up on my knowledge. :)

Great video. Is there way to access the Azure Blob Storage via the Persistent Volume in AKS (Kubernetes)?

[@datpspguy]

I can tell Donovan is a sharp guy, however, this video does skip on the foundational principals and jumps right into execution of building on AKS. Perhaps this should be a multi-series video and this would be the last of the series.

[@suminda-b]

great demo Donovan

[@maheshwarivachan287]

Should I use nginx webserver as base image for deploying react app in production or simple npm server will be good enough ?

[@AbhinavKushwaha]

it is best to use nginx on top of node app, as nginx can take care of compression to gzip. node's compression blocks the event loop.

[@Orphen86]

I have a question, how to integrate azure ad to the application when it is deployed with kubernetes, it does not work in my app

[@Kalsiddegowdru]

Do you have any similar videos done on GUI rather than CLI

[@JonathanOchs]

Not a walk-through of the deployment, but watch the video beginning at kzbin.info/www/bejne/e2q8iKCYisdshtU. Jay Gordon points out the Deployment Center within the AKS area of the Azure Portal

[@xe041300182]

Is it possible to have a min count of nodes less than the actual worker node count?

[@deathstar4794]

Here is the mandatory "Thanks, it works perfectly" comment.

[@davidswaroop79]

You using Chrome instead of Edge?? Wooowwwww

[@LKNL13]

On a MacBook no less

[@michaelchudinov]

this is NOT simple, if you repeat Kuberbetes or AKS is simple it does not become easy. Scripting, rbac json files, you just skipped a lot of work done behind scene.

[@BijouBakson]

My question is: honestly, how many weeks did it take you to start to understand this concept you summed up in less than 15 mins video? this is a 4-hour course on Microsoft Learn, isn't it? Not to mention the number of codes to remember, you know that this is a complex subject. So please, don't pretend as if it's it a walk in the park. My personal take is, there's no way anyone would understand K8s from this video; so why even bother? On a positive note, it's good for a revision for those who already studied it and are preparing for some exam or something like that I guess. So, thank you for the demo.

[@MahmoudMohsab]

create tutorial guys

[@kieranpatel2192]

Agree this just flash game to advertise AKS not a proper tutorial.

[@juliasetiawan9784]

Honestly, not so simple..

[@jamesvincent9135]

smug salespeople. Pretending this stuff is easy when it is actually really complex actually puts a lot of developers in a bad way with their managers.

[@scorpionesp6510]

This.. didn't help at all.. How did you just generate those files? Terrible video.

[@yeahsowhat643]

Not a great video tbh. Give me more fundamentals and basics before jumping into deploying an app..

[@phpmysql2007]

they try to sound as if its easy but not really. also, have some dress code. he looks like he just came out of a cave. half of my attention is on his tattoos.
