You are the administrator of Tamilalt. You want to run containers in Azure. You have to decide between the following Azure services:
- Azure Container Instance
- Azure Kubernetes Service.
Apply the following service benefits from the left to the relevant service on the right. (Use each option only once.)
Explanation
You should choose the following:
Azure Container Instances (ACI) is the service that allows you deploy a container on Azure cloud without having to manage the underlying infrastructure. ACI allows you launch containers quickly. With ACI, you incur costs only when running the container. The billing is on a per-second instead of a per-minute billing. You can isolate an application in a container like a VM environment. You can specify custom sizes for an Azure Container by specifying exact values for CPU cores and memory. With ACI, you can mount Azure files for persistent storage. The shared files are part of the container and are in a persistent state. You can have scheduled Linux containers as well as Windows containers with the same API. ACI allows to have Hypervisor-level security which can isolate your application like the same experience that occurs in a VM.
The Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) manages a Kubernetes environment in Azure. AKS provides full container orchestration because you deploy and manage containerized applications without container orchestration expertise. AKS is scalable to meet growing demands by designs because it includes built-in application autoscaling.
Microsoft recommends AKS instead of ACI when you need service discovery across multiple containers, coordinated application upgrades, and automatic scaling.
