Container Groups In Azure

In this article, we will discuss container groups in Azure.

Purpose

The container group is the collection of container instances.

How To Create Multiple Containers Using The Container Group?

To create the containers, create a file with the ".yml" extension. For this example, we will create the file "deployment.yml" with the following text.

apiVersion: 2019-12-01
location: eastus
name: demogroup
properties:
  containers:
  - name: demoapp
    properties:
      image: nginx
      resources:
        requests:
          cpu: 1
          memoryInGb: 1.5
      ports:
      - port: 80
  osType: Linux
  ipAddress:
    type: Public
    ports:
    - protocol: tcp
      port: 80
type: Microsoft.ContainerInstance/containerGroups

The below image explains different attributes of the "deployment.yml" file.
