Introduction
Welcome to this interactive skills validation experience. Completing this module helps prepare you for the Deploy and manage containers with Azure Kubernetes Serviceassessment.
In this guided exercise, you practice creating and configuring an Azure Container Registry and an Azure Kubernetes Server cluster. The guided exercise combines both learning and hands-on practice. The skills validated include:
- Provisioning Azure Container Registry (ACR) and Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS).
- Building a Linux and Windows container images and store them in Azure Container Registry.
- Deploying container images to Azure Kubernetes Service.
By the end of this guided exercise, you gain hands-on experience in creating and configuring these services in Azure.
Note
In the guided exercise, you complete an end-to-end project by following step-by-step instructions.
