This repository contains the source code for different use cases of implementation of Azure Container Apps. Some of these use cases are used for demos in From Day Zero to Production with Azure Container Apps technical session presented by Kristina Devochko. Long-term plan is to include additional useful resources in this repo, like links to blog posts and other helpful content related to all things Azure Container Apps.
If there are scenarios that are not available in this repository that you would like to see an example implementation of, you can request it by submitting an issue, and I will do my best to make it happenš
Repository is improved continuously and currently includes four use cases that can be found in the respective folders:
-
(Work In Progress)
aca-nginxfolder contains Bicep code for implementing path-based routing between Azure Container Apps, where NGINX is running as a separate container app and acts as a proxy server, routing traffic according to the configured paths, to the other container apps. -
aca-revision-and-traffic-management folder contains a simple Hello World container app that has multiple revision mode configured, which can be used to see revisions and traffic (traffic splitting for blue-green deployment) management in action, once changes are made to the application.
-
(Work In Progress)
aca-with-windows-on-acifolder contains a use case where some applications require Windows containers and are running in Azure Container Instances while the rest of the applications are running as Linux containers in Azure Container Apps. -
aks-store-on-aca folder contains implementation of aks-store-demo but on Azure Container Apps, with a configuration that's closer to a production scenario, including security hardening and proper configuration of dependent managed services.
All use cases are implemented with infrastructure-as-code with Bicep and are directly deployable. Deployment parameters can be adjusted as per your need and are located in Bicep parameter files in parameters folder in every use case's root folder.
If you would like to test out resource provisioning with CI/CD, and example of provisioning aca-revision-and-traffic-management scenario with GitHub Actions workflow, template code is available in .github/workflows folder at the root of this repo.
