Azure Kubernetes Service
Simplify the deployment and management of containerised applications in Azure
Modernise your applications with Azure Kubernetes Service
Modernising your business applications is critical in staying competitive. Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) offers a powerful solution for containerising your applications, enabling you to achieve greater scalability, flexibility, and efficiency.
Why Azure Kubernetes Service?
Portability
“Write once, run anywhere.” Containers allows your applications to run consistently across different environments, whether on-premises or in the cloud.
Efficiency
Containers use fewer resources than traditional virtual machines, leading to higher utilisation of compute resources and faster start-up times.
Agility
Containerisation enables faster development and deployment cycles, allowing your team to deliver new features and updates more quickly.
Isolation
Containers isolate applications from each other and the host system, enhancing security and reducing the risk of conflicts.
Flexibility
Containers can run on virtualised infrastructures or bare metal servers, providing versatility in deployment options.
DevOps integration
Containers integrate seamlessly with DevOps tools and practices, supporting continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipelines.
The benefits of Azure Kubernetes Service
Cost-effective
Reduce operational costs by leveraging a managed Kubernetes service.
Scalability
Easily scale your applications to meet changing business demands.
Seamless integration
Integrate with existing DevOps tools and processes effortlessly.
Enhanced security
Benefit from Azure’s built-in security features and compliance certifications.
High availability
Ensure business continuity with Azure’s global network of data centres.
What is Azure Kubernetes Service?
Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) is a managed Kubernetes service that simplifies the deployment, management, and operations of Kubernetes. AKS reduces the complexity and operational overhead of managing Kubernetes by offloading much of that responsibility to Azure. This allows you to focus on building and running your applications rather than managing the underlying infrastructure.
