Everything you need to know about Azure Kubernetes Services (AKS)
We help a lot of ISVs (independent software vendors) with the transformation to the cloud. We notice that many companies have questions about Azure Kubenertes Services (AKS). That's why we’ve decided to create an AKS e-book with all the answers on questions which we came across. In this E-book our colleagues Wesley Haakman (Lead Architect & Azure MVP), Richard Hooper (Azure Architect & Azure MVP) and Martin Pronk (Azure Consultant) are sharing all that's important when getting start with AKS.
After reading this e-book...
...you'll know why AKS is the solution for you and your team ... you can decide if Azure Kubernetes is a good match with your software architecture ... you have all the tools to get started with Kubernetes ... know what to do before you start pushing Kubernetes cluster to production
What to expect?
Think of this e-book as your AKS manual. The following 8 topics are discussed:
The evolution of AKS
Hybrid deployments with Kubernetes
Microservices on AKS
Update scenarios AKS
Linux vs Windows containers
Security on AKS
Ingress, Services, Pods and Namespaces
Monitoring and managing AKS cluster
And many extras!
Download the e-book and learn everything you need to know about AKS (including the 6 reasons why AKS is the solution for you)!

Azure Kubernetes Services has many built-in security features. Additional ones are available that can be configured from the Azure Controle plane. But what configurations should you use?
A common question when someone is looking into transforming / containerizing their solution is “I’m now running on a Windows based system; do I use Windows containers, or do I go with Linux containers?”. And that is a very valid question.
Kubernetes is “hot & happening”, almost every company already uses or wants to use Kubernetes. Creating an AKS-cluster seems easy enough, but what if you want to create an AKS-cluster for serious production workloads? In this article we will give you some pointers and best-practices which will help you create an AKS-cluster ready for production environments.
The evolution of AKS: from Containers to Kubernetes to Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS)
For some time now [Azure] Kubernetes is thé platform to orchestrate containers. Why is this and what are the benefits of using Kubernetes and managed Kubernetes (AKS)?
One of the motivations for using containers and Kubernetes I come across are “We want to be multi-cloud”. But how easy is it to achieve a hybrid or multi-cloud scenario?
In this article I am going to go over a very important topic, updates. When I say updates, I am referring to not only Kubernetes updates, but also the worker node OS updates. Many people forget about patching the worker node OS believing that it is handle by Microsoft. This is not the case.
Many people talk about Microservices and Service Mesch, but what is this? In this article we'll look at what Microservices are, what a Service Mesh is and what you can do with it, and finally whether you really need it now.
You have a deadline and promised your customers to launch your new platform on a specific date, everyone is working hard and you’re barely meeting your target date. And then someone asks.. “What about security?”
