GitOps has emerged as a powerful paradigm for managing Kubernetes clusters and deploying applications. Two popular tools for implementing GitOps in Kubernetes are Flux and ArgoCD. Both tools have similar functionalities, but they differ in terms of their architecture, ease of use, and integration with cloud platforms like Azure AKS. In this blog, we will… Continue reading
Category: Cloud Computing
Cloud computing is Internet-based computing, whereby shared resources, software, and information are provided to computers and other devices on demand, as with the electricity grid.
Cloud computing is a natural evolution of the widespread adoption of virtualization, Service-oriented architecture and utility computing. Details are abstracted from consumers, who no longer have need for expertise in, or control over, the technology infrastructure “in the cloud” that supports them.[1] Cloud computing describes a new supplement, consumption, and delivery model for IT services based on the Internet, and it typically involves over-the-Internet provision of dynamically scalable and often virtualized resources.[2][3] It is a byproduct and consequence of the ease-of-access to remote computing sites provided by the Internet.[4] This frequently takes the form of web-based tools or applications that users can access and use through a web browser as if it were a program installed locally on their…
The Rise of GitOps: Automating Deployment and Improving Reliability
GitOps is a relatively new approach to software delivery that has been gaining popularity in recent years. It is a set of practices for managing and deploying infrastructure and applications using Git as the single source of truth. In this blog post, we will explore the concept of GitOps, its key benefits, and some examples… Continue reading
Private Kubernetes cluster in AKS with Azure Private Link
Today, we’ll take a look at a new feature in AKS called Azure Private Link, which allows you to connect to AKS securely and privately over the Microsoft Azure backbone network. In the past, connecting to AKS from an on-premises network or other virtual network required using a public IP address, which posed potential security… Continue reading
Difference between workload managed identity, Pod Managed Identity and AKS Managed Identity
Azure Kubernetes Service(AKS) offers several options for managing identities within Kubernetes clusters, including AKS Managed Identity, Pod Managed Identity, and Workload Managed Identity. Here’s a comparison of these three options: Key Features AKS Managed Identity Pod Managed Identity Workload Managed Identity Overview A built-in feature of AKS that allows you to assign an Azure AD… Continue reading
How is AKS workload identity different from AKS pod managed identity?
AKS workload identity and AKS pod managed identity both provide a way to manage access to Azure resources from within a Kubernetes cluster. However, there are some key differences between the two features. Scope AKS pod managed identity provides a managed identity for each individual pod within a Kubernetes cluster. This allows you to grant… Continue reading
What is different between Pod managed identity and AKS managed identity
Both Pod Managed Identity and AKS Managed Identity are identity management solutions provided by Azure, but they have some key differences. Pod Managed Identity Pod Managed Identity is an Azure feature that provides an identity for a single Kubernetes pod. It allows the pod to access Azure resources without the need for credentials such as… Continue reading
AKS pod managed identity
Kubernetes has become one of the most popular container orchestration tools, and Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) is a managed Kubernetes service provided by Microsoft Azure. With the increasing use of Kubernetes and AKS, there is a growing need to improve the security and management of access to cloud resources. AKS pod managed identity is a… Continue reading
AKS Workload Identity
AKS workload identity is a feature of Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) that enables you to use Azure Active Directory (AAD) to manage access to Azure resources from within a Kubernetes cluster. In this blog post, we’ll explore how AKS workload identity works and how to use it with an example code. How does AKS workload… Continue reading
