DevOps Mastery with Docker Kubernetes & Azure Kubernetes

Docker enables containerization to unify development and deployment, packaging source code, dependencies, and configurations into portable containers that resolve environment mismatch between local and production.

Explore how Docker's open-source container platform lets you build, package dependencies, runtime, configurations, and server into a portable container that runs the same across environments.

Learn how cloud computing delivers on-demand storage and computing power with pay-as-you-go pricing and distributed data centers. Understand the capex-to-opex shift and major providers like AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud.

Explore the three cloud models: infrastructure as a service, platform as a service, and software as a service, and learn how the degree of management shapes deployment and responsibilities.

Azure DevOps offers an agile portal with boards, repositories, and pipelines to automate planning, building, testing, and continuous integration and deployment across projects.

Log in to the Azure portal, explore service categories, and organize resources into resource groups for apps, databases, VMs, and storage.

Explore the Azure DevOps portal to create organizations and projects, manage boards, dashboards, and repositories, and implement pipelines for continuous integration and deployment with test plans and artifacts.

Explore how traditional deployment and virtualization impact utilisation of resources, from hosting OS on the big machine to hypervisor-based virtual machines, highlighting inefficiencies and the drive toward more efficient approaches.

Deploy apps as isolated docker containers using docker images for portable, lightweight execution across any host or cloud. Learn scaling, decoupling, and challenges like health monitoring and security.

Explore Kubernetes architecture by distinguishing master and worker nodes and their core components, including API server and scheduler, and recognize namespaces for isolating resources within a cluster.

Explore how a Kubernetes cluster orchestrates a master with multiple worker nodes, each running a kubelet that executes commands to deploy pods containing containers from Docker images.

Learn how API server serves as the frontend of the Kubernetes control plane, receiving instructions via UI, APIs, or CLI tools and delivering them to the master and worker nodes.

Explore the Kubernetes controller manager and its four sub controllers—node, application, replication, and endpoint controllers—plus the service account and token controller for namespace API tokens, all bundled in one binary.

Explore etcd, a highly available, consistent key-value store that maintains the Kubernetes cluster state on the master node, ensuring redundancy and seamless operation during node failures.

Explore how a port is the smallest deployable unit hosting containers, and see how a service provides a stable DNS name with load balancing.

Set up a local Kubernetes cluster with Mini Cube to simulate a master node and a worker node, and interact with Cube City for deployments.

Explore the different Kubernetes service types, including cluster IP, node port, load balancer, and external name, and learn how each selects accessible scope within or outside the cluster.

Clone the spring boot and mongodb project from the repository, switch to the correct branch, and import the folder into your IDE to prepare for deployment.

Create an Azure resource group to organize related resources, name it Springboard, select location, then delete the group after setup and proceed to create the database in the next video.

Create an Azure Cosmos DB resource by selecting a subscription, choosing a location, and configuring the API, then access deployment logs and prepare to connect to the Springboard application.

Navigate to the Cosmos DB page, locate the connection string from the database details, and prepare the information to connect your application to Cosmos DB.

Build a docker image from the application locally by tagging with a name and version, then verify the image and prepare to push to an agile container registry.

Create an Azure container registry by selecting a resource group, choosing the registry name, configuring public access, and applying the standard pricing plan.

Tag your local docker image with the Azure container registry repository version, then push the tagged image to the ACR to complete the deployment.

Tag the local Docker image and push it to Azure container registry in the Asia region, so the Docker image for the Oval Springboard application appears in the repository.

Learn to create a deployment using kubectl, specify the image and repository, and verify deployment status and details, preparing to create a service next.

Deploy and verify a springboard application in a Kubernetes cluster, check pod logs, connect to Azure cloud MongoDB, and perform post and get operations to confirm data flow.

Expose a deployment on a Kubernetes cluster by defining a service with yaml, linking a selector to the deployment, and mapping ports to the outside world via NodePort or LoadBalancer.

Create deployment and service yaml files for a Spring Boot app on any Kubernetes cluster, configuring replicas, pod template, and container ports.

Apply the deployment with kubectl apply -f <file> on an Azure AKS cluster, then expose it with a load balancer service to obtain an external IP.

Delete an existing Kubernetes service and create a new one, then expose deployments with a load balancer service, assign public IPs, and run multiple services on distinct ports.

Explore the power of Kubernetes by deploying any database with any app using Docker images across a cluster, with deployments, services, and parallel replicas.

Deploy the same applications on AKS, EKS, GKS, on-premise, or a mini cube cluster, using Kubernetes to run Docker containers in pods across clouds and on premise.

Delete azure resources in a resource group to avoid extra costs by removing all infrastructure resources and cleaning up groups. Be patient as deletion can take several minutes.
