Containerize and Deploy a Multi-Container Application to Azure Container Apps
Build Docker images for a restaurant menu app, push to ACR, and deploy frontend and backend containers to Azure Container Apps.
Lab Overview & Objectives
Azure Container Apps is a fully managed serverless container platform that enables you to deploy and run containerized applications without managing complex infrastructure. It provides automatic scaling, built-in load balancing, and seamless integration with Azure Container Registry, making it ideal for organizations looking to modernize their application deployment workflows.
In this lab, you will containerize a two-tier restaurant menu management application and deploy it to Azure Container Apps. You'll learn how to write Dockerfiles for Node.js applications, build and push container images to Azure Container Registry, and configure container apps with ingress and environment variables for inter-service communication.
Objectives
Upon completion of this intermediate level lab, you will be able to:
- Write Dockerfiles to containerize Node.js applications for production deployment
- Build and push container images to Azure Container Registry using Azure CLI
- Deploy containerized applications to Azure Container Apps with ingress configuration
- Configure environment variables to enable communication between frontend and backend containers
Who is this lab for?
This lab is designed for:
- Cloud Engineers looking to gain hands-on experience with container deployment on Azure
- DevOps Engineers seeking to understand containerization workflows and Azure Container Apps
- Software Developers wanting to learn how to containerize and deploy multi-tier applications
- IT Professionals preparing for Azure certifications involving container technologies
