Azure Kubernetes Service: Essential Best Practices for Business Continuity
Are you familiar with the power of Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) clusters? They provide a rock-solid foundation for your applications, ensuring seamless accessibility and smooth operations. But what happens when disaster strikes? While AKS offers high availability within a Virtual Machine Scale Set, it can’t protect you from a destructive region failure. Imagine the consequences if an entire Azure region goes down, leaving your nodes and resources in the dark.
How to deploy SQL Server containers to a Kubernetes cluster for high availability?
In this blog, we will learn how to deploy the SQL server container on Azure Kubernetes services with High availability. We will use the persistent storage feature of Kubernetes to add resiliency to the solution. In this scenario, if the SQL server instance fails, Kubernetes will automatically re-create it in a new POD and attach it to the persistent volume. It will also provide protection from Node failure by recreating it again. If you are new to Kubernetes we will start by understanding the basic terminology of Kubernetes and its Architecture.
