Learn Live: Intelligent Apps with Azure Kubernetes Service

Join us this fall to learn together with our Cloud Native Advocacy team and friends how we can make Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) an excellent part of our intelligent application. We’ll use the AKS Store Demo application and learn how to add AI integration, expand, support, and scale to meet the needs of your applications.

Join us for this live learning experience where you will be guided by subject matter experts through the Learn modules below in real time along with developers around the globe. Earn badges, prepare for certifications and Learn Live with a great community! See you there :)

Deploying Intelligent Apps with OpenAI on Azure Kubernetes Service

Deploying Intelligent Apps with OpenAI on Azure Kubernetes Service : October 12, 2023 9:00AM - 10:30AM (Pacific)

Join us to learn how to effectively deploy an intelligent microservice-based application into Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) and integrate with Azure OpenAI. We’ll walk through setting up the application environment, deploying Azure OpenAI services and configuring a deployment of an existing model, and integrating that with our application. In this episode, you will:

  • Learn how to deploy an application that uses Azure OpenAI or OpenAI on AKS.
  • Adapt different AI models
  • Deploy an AKS cluster in your Azure subscription
  • Deploy your OpenAI service and the sample application.
Securing Access to Azure Open AI Services with AKS Workload Identity

Securing Access to Azure Open AI Services with AKS Workload Identity: October 19, 2023 9:00AM - 10:30AM (Pacific)

Today we'll be migrating our application from using token-based authentication for Azure OpenAI to using Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) Workload Identity. AKS Workload Identity allows specified workloads to use a Microsoft Entra Id to control access to Azure services like Azure OpenAI, removing the need to manage individual authentication tokens and providing greater visibility into access control for your Azure services. In this episode, you will:

  • Enable workload identities on an AKS cluster
  • Create an Azure user-assigned managed identity
  • Create an Azure AD federated credential
  • Enable workload identity on a Kubernetes Pod
Designing Intelligent Application Deployment for Scale, Resilience, and Observability

Designing Intelligent Application Deployment for Scale, Resilience, and Observability: October 26, 2023 9:00AM - 10:30AM (Pacific)

Intelligent Applications on Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) have similar deployment and operational concerns to other microservice-based applications. In this session, we’ll look at how we can leverage the features of AKS and the AKS and Azure ecosystem to ensure that our intelligent applications can scale effectively, operate resiliently, and offer visibility into the metrics necessary. In this episode, you will:

  • E2E testing using Playwright
  • Ensuring your app scales using Azure Load Testing
  • Ensuring your app is resilient using Chaos Studio
  • Putting it all together with GitHub Actions
Network Security and Access for Intelligent Applications on Azure Kubernetes Service

Network Security and Access for Intelligent Applications on Azure Kubernetes Service: November 2, 2023 9:00AM - 10:30AM (Pacific)

While our demo applications may have all of our services open to the public internet, in real life, access control is a requirement. We’ll explore using Azure Virtual Networks and private endpoints to restrict access to Azure OpenAI, while ensuring access for our microservices application. Additionally, we’ll look into how we expose our applications in our Azure Kubernetes Service cluster to the internet safely and securely. In this episode, you will:
