Azure Container Apps is a fully managed application service provided by Microsoft Azure. It's based on Kubernetes, which is an open-source platform designed to automate deploying, scaling, and operating application containers.
Here are some key features of Azure Container Apps:
-
Fully Managed: Azure Container Apps eliminates the need for you to manage the underlying infrastructure. It takes care of server management, networking, orchestration, and runtime.
-
Flexible Deployment: You can deploy your applications directly from code or use Docker containers. It supports continuous deployment from Azure Pipelines, GitHub, Bitbucket, and more.
-
Built-in Security: Azure Container Apps is secure by default. It automatically provides an HTTPS endpoint for your apps with a managed certificate.
-
Scaling: It can automatically scale up or down based on the demand or a schedule. You only pay for the resources you use.
-
Integrated Developer Experience: You can use familiar tools like the Azure CLI, Azure portal, or ARM templates to manage your applications.
-
Event-driven Architecture: Azure Container Apps supports running jobs on-demand, on a schedule, or based on events. This makes it a good choice for microservices and serverless architectures.
-
Integration with Azure Ecosystem: It works seamlessly with other Azure services like Azure Functions, Logic Apps, Event Grid, and more.
