How do I create and configure Azure Container Instances (ACI) in the Azure Portal or Powershell?

Azure Portal

1. Log in to the Azure Portal and select the “Create a resource” button on the left-hand side.
2. Search for “Container Instances” and select the option from the results.
3. Select “Create” to start the configuration process.
4. Fill in the required details, such as the resource group, container name, region, and image source. You can also configure the container instance settings, such as CPU and memory allocation, port mapping, and environment variables.
5. Review your configuration and select “Create” to deploy the container instance.

PowerShell

Here’s an example PowerShell script for creating and configuring an Azure Container Instance:

bash

# Log in to Azure
Connect-AzAccount

# Set variables
$resourceGroupName = "myResourceGroup"
$containerName = "myContainerInstance"
$imageName = "mcr.microsoft.com/azuredocs/aci-helloworld"
$cpu = 1
$memoryInGb = 1
$location = "eastus"

# Create the resource group
New-AzResourceGroup -Name $resourceGroupName -Location $location

# Create the container instance
New-AzContainerGroup -ResourceGroupName $resourceGroupName `
    -Name $containerName `
    -Image $imageName `
    -Cpu $cpu `
    -MemoryInGB $memoryInGb `
    -OsType Linux `
    -Port 80

# Get the container instance
$container = Get-AzContainerGroup -ResourceGroupName $resourceGroupName -Name $containerName

# Set additional configuration settings
$container | Set-AzContainerGroup `
    -RestartPolicy Always `
    -EnvironmentVariable `
        @{name="MY_VAR"; value="my-value"}

# Deploy the container instance
New-AzContainerGroup -ResourceGroupName $resourceGroupName `
    -Name $containerName `
    -Container $container

This script creates a new resource group, container instance, and sets the CPU, memory, and port settings. It then retrieves the container instance, sets additional configuration settings such as environment variables, and finally deploys the container instance to Azure.

How do I create and configure a container in Azure Container Instances (ACI) in the Azure Portal or Powershell?

Sure, here’s an example of creating and configuring a container in Azure Container Instances (ACI) using both the Azure Portal and PowerShell:

Azure Portal

1. Log in to the Azure Portal and select the “Create a resource” button on the left-hand side.
2. Search for “Container Instances” and select the option from the results.
3. Select “Create” to start the configuration process.
4. Fill in the required details, such as the resource group, container name, region, and image source. You can also configure the container instance settings, such as CPU and memory allocation, port mapping, and environment variables.
5. Review your configuration and select “Create” to deploy the container instance.

PowerShell

Here’s an example PowerShell script for creating and configuring a container in Azure Container Instances:

bash

# Log in to Azure
Connect-AzAccount

# Set variables
$resourceGroupName = "myResourceGroup"
$containerName = "myContainerInstance"
$imageName = "mcr.microsoft.com/azuredocs/aci-helloworld"
$cpu = 1
$memoryInGb = 1
$location = "eastus"

# Create the resource group
New-AzResourceGroup -Name $resourceGroupName -Location $location

# Create the container instance
$container = New-AzContainerGroup -ResourceGroupName $resourceGroupName `
    -Name $containerName `
    -Image $imageName `
    -Cpu $cpu `
    -MemoryInGB $memoryInGb `
    -OsType Linux `
    -Port 80

# Set additional configuration settings
$container | Set-AzContainerGroup `
    -RestartPolicy Always `
    -EnvironmentVariable `
        @{name="MY_VAR"; value="my-value"}

# Deploy the container instance
New-AzContainerGroup -ResourceGroupName $resourceGroupName `
    -Name $containerName `
    -Container $container

This script creates a new resource group, container instance, and sets the CPU, memory, and port settings. It then sets additional configuration settings such as environment variables, and finally deploys the container instance to Azure. Note that this example only deploys a single container instance. If you want to deploy multiple containers as part of a larger application, you’ll need to modify the script accordingly.
