How to Deploy Docker Containers into AKS cluster using Azure Pipelines | Deploy Docker Image into AKS cluster using Azure Release Pipelines

We are going to learn how to deploy Docker containers into Azure Kubernetes Cluster(AKS) using Azure pipelines.

Pre-requisites:

1. AKS cluster needs to be up running. You can create AKS cluster using one of the below options:

• Create AKS cluster in Azure portal directly
• Create AKS cluster using Azure CLI
• Create AKS cluster using Terraform

2. ACR is also setup in Azure cloud. 

3. Already created Azure DevOps dashboard in 

https://dev.azure.com/

4. Dockerfile created along with the application source code

5. Make sure AKS has pull access from ACR

Implementation Steps

Step 1 - Create Azure Build pipeline for building Docker images and uploading into ACR
