This course is designed to give you a solid understanding of containers and how they are used in Azure DevOps. It begins by looking at creating deployable images through Docker containers, microservices, and at the various container-related services available in Azure, including Azure Container Instances, the Azure Kubernetes Service, the Azure Container Registry, Azure Service Fabric, and Azure App Service.
The course also looks at Dockerfile and Docker multi-stage builds before finishing with a hands-on demonstration that shows you how to create an Azure Container Registry.

This course is intended for DevOps professionals who wish to learn how to design and implement, through the use of containers, strategies for developing application code and infrastructure that allow for continuous integration, testing, delivery, monitoring, and feedback.
To get the most from this course, you should have a basic understanding of the Azure platform and of container concepts.
We'll kick off by talking about ways to create deployable images. You'll learn about docker containers and their role in development. You'll also learn about microservices and where they fit in.
After discussing microservices, we'll dive into the different Azure container-related services. We'll talk about Azure Container Instances, the Azure Kubernetes Service, the Azure Container Registry, and Azure Service Fabric. We'll also tough on Azure App Service.
Once we finish up with the different container-related services, we'll look at a typical Dockerfile.
Later on, in this course, we'll look at Docker multi-stage builds. You'll learn what multi-stage builds are, and things to consider when working with multi-stage builds.
We'll round things out with a hands-on demonstration that shows you how to create an Azure Container Registry,
By the time you complete this course, you'll have a better understanding of containers and how they are used in Azure DevOps.
We’d love to get your feedback on this course, so please give it a rating when you’re finished. If you’re ready to learn how to build containers with Azure DevOps, let’s get started.
