Practical Azure DevOps Fundamentals

Deploy the React frontend to Azure Container Apps and configure browser-safe REST and WebSocket routing to the backend.

Configure Container Apps health probes, release a new revision, validate it, and roll back failed traffic.

Provision a short-lived, cost-controlled AKS cluster with Terraform and authorize it to pull private registry images.

Represent application settings and credentials with Kubernetes ConfigMaps and Secrets without exposing secret values.

Deploy the FastAPI backend to AKS with a Deployment, Service, resource limits, and health probes.

Deploy the React frontend to AKS and expose working REST and WebSocket routes through an ingress controller.

Build, test, and push versioned application images from GitHub Actions using OIDC authentication instead of long-lived Azure credentials.

Automate a validated Azure Container Apps release from GitHub Actions and trigger a rollback when verification fails.

Instrument the FastAPI backend with OpenTelemetry and export request metrics, traces, and failures to Application Insights.

Create and validate an Azure Monitor alert using application telemetry and container-platform signals.
