Azure ACI Tutorial - Azure Container Instance - Step by Step

hi there it's scott duffy from getcloudskills.com in this video we're going to play with azure container instances we're going to deploy a very simple hello world container into an azure container instance we're going to see how quick and easy it is if you like videos like this i appreciate a thumbs up on the video if you want to see more microsoft azure content hit subscribe let's get into this video where we're going to go to the azure portal and we're going to deploy a very simple container so we're going to head over to the portal which is portal.microsoft.com we're going to go to the create a resource button and what we're going to be doing is getting a container so one thing i can do is i can search for container in the search box and we're going to scroll through there's a lot of non-microsoft options so what something i like to do is i'll just skip over and say i only want to see the microsoft options and container instances comes up as a top result click on that i'm going to minimize the menu here so that we can focus on the task at hand now we do need to create a new resource group so i can call this new rg123 call it whatever you wish we have to give this container a name so my new container 2021 thankfully no one else has taken that i can deploy that into any region west u.s is available now you can see here that we do have choices for where to deploy the container from the image source one of these convenient elements is the quick start and so we can see that nginx is here we can see that windows server very simplified windows server core is available and also the aci which is azure container instances hello world so i'm going to choose that now i could also have a private azure container registry acr that contains my own code images or i could have a link to a docker hub or to some other public registry i believe the mcr.microsoft.com is a docker hub url too so i could have choose the same url for docker hub now we can see that it's offering me up a 1 cpu 1.5 gig memory container which is extremely small and so we should have no trouble uh running a hello world and even if it's is small now when it comes to containers uh we do want to have a public ip address now maybe in some cases you're not going to want that to be public you want that to be private but we will need a public now is where we provide the fully qualified domain name so i believe i called this new container test i'll give it a new name so new container test is going to be the name i'll allow port 80 to be open i don't need any other ports we don't have to worry too much about how to handle the container on failure uh also we don't we're not passing in any of the environment value variables or are we passing in any custom parameters for this specific one we don't need any metadata so we're going to now test microsoft's saying the container instances are the fastest and easiest way to create containers so i'm going to click the create button and let's see if it is true that this is the fastest and easiest way to create a container all right so let's just look at how long that did take it took 37 seconds it's pretty reasonable for container let's go to the resource so we can see that there is a fully qualified domain here i've made a copy of that we have an ip address as well let's go into my handy dandy web browser paste in this address and you'll see it says welcome to azure container instances so that is the aci hello world that we're expecting to see so you can see how quick and easy it has been to create this container we didn't have to provide too much you do have to have an image to deploy you can't create an empty container that does not point to any image but relatively quick and painless to create an azure container instance that points to this hello world image thanks a lot for checking out this video this has been scott duffy from get cloud skills i do have a number of courses on udemy relating to microsoft azure specifically around in this case an az104 azure administrator certification if you're interested in learning the details of azure administration check the link in the description anyways i want to thank you so much and i hope you have a great day
