How to add DNS / FQDN when deploying via docker compose

Question

Hi There,

I wan't to deploy a simple app with multiple containers to azure container instances using docker compose.

But how can I set the FQDN to make the containers available? I found some documentation on how to set it for a single container but no docs for docker compose.

Would be great to get some help

THX

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A Platform, thanks for posting your query here.

If you are looking deploying multi-container ACI, then you can have only one FQDN for the container group. Containers themselves cannot have FQDNs. You can have different containers listening on different ports on the container group's IP address (in turn the FQDN).

You can't have multiple FQDNs for containers in the same container group. FQDN is supported only at the container group level.

Hope that helps.
