The functionality of the containers significantly depends on the developing methods the developers opt for the application. It also changes its pattern according to the system administrators in order to maintain the process flow in the working environment. The core function of the container is to provide simple and open standard portability between platforms and clouds. Here, we are going to throw light on the exciting features of new Azure Container Instances (ACI). The useful service quickly delivers containers and don’t require even the assistance of a Virtual Machine Assistance.

Azure Container is the fastest and easiest way to run container in the cloud and it takes only a few seconds to start and billed. The exclusive features of ACI include versatile sizing and no use of GB than the needed. Versatile sizing allows the user to separate the exact amount of memory and from vCPUs. It helps to make application fit on the infrastructure. The container is the first class objects in the Azure platform which is highly useful in the tracking of the billing tags and offers Role-Based Access Control on instances. However, there is no VM management or higher clusters present in ACI as only the code is responsible for running the cloud.

Here are the examples of commands needed to deploy ACI using Azure CLI.

az container create -g aci_grp –name nginx –image library/nginxip-address public

Control the exact GB of memory by using the below-mentioned code.

az container create -g aci_grp –name nginx –image library/nginxip-address public –cpu 2 –memory 5

ACI containers can be deployed with the help of Azure CLI and or a template. It’s available for Linux containers can use container instances and even you can use Azure Container Registry by using private repository or Docker Hub.

The open source  ACI Connector for Kubernetes enables Kubernetes cluster to deploy to Azure Container Instances which have VM infrastructure to manage and leverage portable Kubernetes API. It can also be used for the fast scaling and bursting while VM ensures more predictable scaling. These infrastructure models also let you transfer workloads between back-and-forth them and give you a suitable environment where you maintain the level of agility for deploying Kubernetes.
