Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) offers an ideal platform. Here's a snapshot of this architecture:

🎯AKS: Managed Kubernetes cluster hosted in Azure. Focus on agent nodes while Azure handles the Kubernetes API service.

🎯Virtual Network: AKS sets up a virtual network for agent nodes. For advanced scenarios, set up your own network with control over subnet config and more.

🎯Ingress: Exposes HTTP(S) routes to services within the cluster, acting as an API Gateway.

🎯Azure Load Balancer: Routes internet traffic to the ingress controller, ensuring scalability and reliability.

🎯External Data Stores: Microservices often use external data stores like Azure SQL Database or Azure Cosmos DB for stateful operations.

🎯Microsoft Entra ID: Used for creating and managing Azure resources and recommended for user authentication in client apps.

🎯Azure Container Registry: Store private Docker images for deployment. AKS can authenticate using its Microsoft Entra identity.

🎯Azure Pipelines: Part of Azure DevOps, automates builds, tests, and deployments. Also compatible with third-party CI/CD tools.

🎯Helm: A Kubernetes package manager that simplifies managing and deploying applications.

🎯Azure Monitor: Collects and stores metrics, logs, and telemetry data for monitoring, alerting, and root cause analysis.

🎯Cost Optimization: Use the Azure pricing calculator to estimate costs, and refer to the Azure Well-Architected Framework for further insights.

✨ Cost Considerations:

✅ AKS: No direct cost, but you pay for underlying resources.
✅ Azure Load Balancer: Charges for configured load-balancing rules.
✅ Azure Pipelines: Free options with charges for extra jobs.
✅ Azure Monitor: Costs based on data ingestion and retention.

Seize the potential of microservices on AKS, backed by the Azure cloud's robust infrastructure.
