Deploy and manage containers using Azure Kubernetes Services (AZ-1001)

Welcome to our AZ-1001 course Deploy and manage containers using Azure Kubernetes Services (AZ-1001) on Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS), where you’ll learn everything about the universe of container deployment and management on Microsoft Azure. Explore in detail the architecture of AKS clusters, pod management, as well as network configurations. Throughout this training, you’ll learn to navigate namespaces, optimize access controls, and implement robust monitoring and logging solutions for your AKS environments.

Gain hands-on experience by deploying and using Azure Container Registry (ACR), ensuring seamless integration of your container images. With guided exercises, you’ll create, push, and manage container images, all while setting up virtual networks to support your AKS deployments. As you progress, you’ll uncover secrets to securing network flows, scaling nodes, and implementing Microsoft Identity integration for enhanced security.
