Deploying .Net Microservices with K8s, AKS and Azure DevOps

🌟 Course Title: Deploying .Net Microservices with K8s, AKS, and Azure DevOps
📚 Course Description:

Are you ready to elevate your cloud deployment game? In this comprehensive course, "Deploying .Net Microservices into Kubernetes," we're embarking on a journey to master the art of deploying your .NET microservices in a Kubernetes environment and then leveraging the power of Azure Cloud Services. Our focus will be on Azure Kubernetes Services (AKS) and Azure DevOps for seamless, automated deployment processes.

🐙 What You'll Learn:

1. Containerization with Docker: We'll start by learning how to containerize your microservices using Docker, ensuring they are ready to run in any environment.

2. Kubernetes Essentials: Get hands-on experience with Kubernetes components such as pods, deployments, and services, and learn how to orchestrate your containers effectively.

3. Zero-Downtime Deployments: Discover techniques for deploying new versions of your applications without disrupting the end-user experience.

4. Cloud Integration: Utilize Azure resources like Azure Container Registry (ACR) and Azure Kubernetes Services (AKS) to deploy your containerized microservices in the cloud.

5. Automation with Azure DevOps: Automate your entire deployment process by writing custom pipelines with Azure DevOps, ensuring your applications are deployed consistently and efficiently.

Hands-On Projects:

• Microservice 1 - Shopping MVC Client Application: Develop a standalone Web application consuming API resources, containerize it, and explore deployment options on Azure services.

• Microservice 2 - Shopping API Application: Build a microservice with MongoDB, orchestrate all docker containers, and push images to ACR, managing product records in MongoDB.

• Microservice 3 - Mongo Db Database: Configure MongoDB as the database for our Shopping API, ensuring a robust data management solution.

Course Outline:

1. Setting Up Your Development Environment:

   • Install necessary tools and set up your workspace.

2. Containerization and Docker:

   • Create Dockerfiles for each microservice.
   • Push images to Docker Hub or ACR.

3. Local Kubernetes Deployment:

   • Deploy docker container images on a local Kubernetes cluster.

4. Cloud Shift and AKS Deployment:

   • Move deployments to AKS using ACR.
   • Implement zero-downtime deployments strategies.

5. CI/CD Automation with Azure DevOps:

   • Write YAML files for deployment pipelines in Azure DevOps.
   • Trigger builds and deployments upon code commits to GitHub.

6. Real-World Application:

   • Apply what you've learned by deploying multi-container microservices with fully automated CI/CD pipelines.

By the end of this course, you will have a solid understanding of deploying and automating .NET microservices in Kubernetes using Azure Cloud services. You'll be equipped with the practical skills to handle complex deployment scenarios and the confidence to take your applications to the next level.

This isn't just a course; it's an opportunity to dive deep into hands-on development, with 90% of the content focused on real-world activities. Join us and become proficient in deploying multi-container microservices applications with automated CI/CD pipelines! 🚀
