AKS is a fully managed Kubernetes service on Microsoft Azure that makes it easy to deploy, manage, and run containerized applications. It unlocks the power of containers for your applications, allowing you to focus on developing applications instead of spending time managing complex infrastructure. With AKS, you can take advantage of features like rapid application deployment, easy horizontal scaling, self-healing, load balancing, and secure secret management. All of this can save you time, improve application performance, and reduce costs.

There are many benefits to using AKS, including rapid application deployment, easy horizontal scaling, self-healing, secure load balancing, and secure secret management. All of these features can help you save time, improve application performance, and reduce costs.

You only pay for the compute resources you use with AKS, such as virtual machines (VMs), storage, and networking. You can also use the free tier for managing clusters at no cost, which is great for exploration, experimentation, and getting started.

Microsoft has a wealth of resources available for learning about AKS, including documentation, tutorials, and samples. You can get started on the Microsoft Learn website: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/training/modules/intro-to-azure-kubernetes-service/
