AppSphere 15 - Microsoft Azure for Developers & DevOps
2 likes719 views
The document discusses various Azure services for developers and DevOps, including Azure Virtual Machines, scale sets, and Azure Container Service, emphasizing their applications in scalable and reliable computing. It details how Virtual Machine Scale Sets enable the deployment and management of identical VMs, integrating with Azure features like autoscaling and load balancing for hyperscale applications. Additionally, the document touches on microservices architecture, explaining the differences between stateless and stateful services while highlighting Azure Service Fabric's role in managing microservice-based applications.
![Azure Templates can:
• Ensure Idempotency
• Simplify Orchestration
• Simplify Roll-back
• Provide Cross-Resource Configuration and
Update Support
Azure Templates are:
• Source file, checked-in
• Specifies resources and dependencies
(VMs, WebSites, DBs) and connections
(config, LB sets)
• Parameterized input/output
Instantiation of repeatable config.

- 4. Azure Resource Manager • Application Lifecycle Container • Declarative Solution for Deployment and Configuration • Consistent Management Layer RESOURCE GROUP Azure Resource Manager Azure Resource Groups • Tightly coupled containers of multiple resources of similar or different types • Resource Group is a unit of management – Deployment, Update, Delete – Identity – Metering, billing, quota

- 6. Virtual machine building blocks • OS & data disk images – Various sizes – Windows base OSs – Linux base OSs – Azure Certified Images – Community images • VM Extensions – Security – Deployment – Configuration – Others • Visual Studio debuggers • Diagnostics agents • Monitoring agents • Access recovery • Docker extension • Backup helper
- 8. Challenges of scale with virtual machines • Need to correlate loops of independent resources, e.g. NICs, storage accounts, VMs – Different loop sizes for NICs and storage accounts etc. • No easy mechanism to scale in • Scale out – How do you ensure availability • Resource loops are a syntactical shorthand, but multiple calls go to fabric …….Virtual Machine Scale Sets to the rescue
- 9. What are Virtual Machine Scale Sets? • A way to deploy and manage a set of identical VMs • Integrate with Azure Autoscale • Integrate with Azure Load Balancer • An Azure Compute resource Microsoft.Compute/virtualMachineScaleSets • Scalable compute layer for hyperscale apps • An infrastructure for PaaS
- 10. VM Scale Sets in ARM • Auto-Scalable • Fast • Customizable – Windows or Linux – VM extensions – Open PaaS platform • Ease of Management – Focus on target instance count – Updateable Resource Group Subnet Scalable Storage V M VNET Scalable NIC … V M V M V M Scale Set Extensions Manage groups of identical VMs https://github.com/Azure/azure-quickstart-templates

- 15. • Scales by cloning the app on multiple servers/VMs/Containers Monolithic application approach Microservices application approach • A microservice application separates functionality into separate smaller services. • Scales out by deploying each service independently creating instances of these services across servers/VMs/containers • A monolithic application has most of its functionality within a single process that is commonly componentized with libraries. App 1 App 2App 1
- 16. What is a microservice? • Encapsulates a scenario • Are developed by a small engineering team • Can be written in any language and framework • Contain code plus state that is independently versioned, deployed, and scaled • Interact with other microservices over well defined interfaces and protocols such as http • Have a unique name (URL) that can be resolved • Remains consistent and available in the presence of failures
- 17. Types of microservices from a Service Fabric perspective • Stateless microservice – Has either no state or it can be retrieved from an external store – There can be N instances – e.g. web frontends, protocol gateways, Azure Cloud Services etc. • Stateful microservice – Maintain hard, authoritative state – N consistent copies achieved through replication and local persistence – e.g. database, documents, workflow, user profile, shopping cart etc.
