Step 4: Create a Service

Create a DuploCloud Service for application deployment

With all of the core components of your DuploCloud platform configured, enabled, and running, you're ready to deploy applications with Azure, using AKS and Kubernetes.

In order to deploy applications, you must first create a DuploCloud Service to connect to the Docker containers and images where your application code exists. Once you create a Service from the DuploCloud Portal, you can also perform tasks that you might perform when working with a Kubernetes servicearrow-up-right. For example, you can view container logs, container state, and container shell, as well as get access to kubectl, which allows you to work directly with Kubernetes constructs such as Pods.

In this step, we create a Service to connect a Dockerarrow-up-right that displays a simple Welcome message on a web page.

Estimated time to complete Step 4: 15 minutes.
