Azure Container Service allows you to quickly deploy a production ready Kubernetes, DC/OS, or Docker Swarm cluster.

Azure Container Instances let you run a container in Azure without managing virtual machines and without a higher-level service.

Create from Azure CLI

az group create --name growfarm1 --location eastus

Where as the RG name growfarm1 and the location is eastus

DNS_NAME_LABEL=growfarm1bag

az container create \

--resource-group growfarm1 \

--name mycontainer \

--image microsoft/aci-helloworld \

--ports 80 \

--dns-name-label $DNS_NAME_LABEL \

--location eastus

NOTE : The image name, microsoft/aci-helloworld, refers to a Docker image hosted on Docker Hub that runs a basic Node.js web application.

az container show \

--resource-group growfarm1 \

--name mycontainer \

--query "{FQDN:ipAddress.fqdn,ProvisioningState:provisioningState}" \

--out table
