Vinicius Apolinario and Amy Colyer go over in detail 5 Tips for containerizing IIS apps with Windows Containers. IIS is an easy way to get started using containers and there are many reasons to consider migrating this workload to containers. There are quite a few management challenges for IIS instances on virtual machines that they go over to solve such as:
  • SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) certificate lifecycle – Using Azure Key Vault we can store the certificate in one spot
  • IIS Application Pools and Websites – Using Azure Migrate App Containerization you can containerize your websites from a virtual machine
  • Hardcoded configurations – Learn to use secrets and configmaps for hard coded configurations that are normally within the IIS application
  • Horizontal scale – AKS can scale nodes up or down to run container pods depending on demand without user interaction
  • End of support upgrade cycles – containers can be easily upgraded with no application downtime
You will see how windows containers can address all these challenges. ➡️ Follow the blog post series.
