Docker & Kubernetes Commands: Essential Guide for Microservices Development

🐳🚀 Docker and ☸️ Kubernetes have emerged as crucial technologies in the realm of microservices development, revolutionizing the way modern applications are built, deployed, and managed. 💡 Docker, with its lightweight containerization approach, enables developers to package applications and their dependencies into portable and self-contained units 📦. These containers provide consistency across different environments, ensuring that applications run reliably regardless of the underlying infrastructure. 🌍 Kubernetes, the container orchestration platform, takes microservices deployment to the next level by providing automated management, load balancing, and fault tolerance 🔄⚖️.

Together, 🐳 Docker and ☸️ Kubernetes empower developers to embrace the microservices architecture, enabling modular, scalable, and resilient applications that can be easily deployed and managed in dynamic and distributed environments 🏗️💪. By leveraging these technologies, organizations can achieve faster development cycles ⚡, improved scalability 🔝, and enhanced operational efficiency 👨 💻🔧, thereby unlocking the full potential of microservices development. 🚀🌟

Here is a comprehensive list of essential commands that you’ll use on a daily basis when working with containers and Kubernetes. As a backend developer engaged in Microservices development, it’s crucial to keep these commands readily available for your workflow.

API Gateway using Ocelot

Hi Friends,

In this section, we are going to see how to build API gateway using Ocelot. Ocelot is one of the most popular libraries for API Gateways used in conjunction with Microservices project. In the last article, we have seen how to handle the traffic using envoy gateway. In this case, we are going to extend the same example using Ocelot and see how it works underneath. As we know already, Gateways are very useful and it helps with following features seamlessly.

  • Routing
  • Authentication
  • Authorization
  • Rate Limiting
  • Caching
  • Load Balancing
  • Circuit Breaker
  • Request Aggregation

API Gateway using Envoy and Docker

Hi Friends,

In this section, we are going to look at API Gateway implementation using Envoy. API Gateway is one of the best way to encapsulate internals of Microservice from outside world. This is the place where we can implement cross cutting concerns like

  • HTTPS Termination
  • Load Balancing
  • Routing
  • Caching
  • Aggregation
  • Logging
  • Transformation
  • etc

Exporting DACPAC and Importing to Azure via Github Actions

Hi Friends,

In this section, we are going to see how to export dacpc file from SQL Server or Visual Studio and import the same in Azure. This is really important step and definitely you are going to need this, if you are writing some sort of data driven app and which needs to be deployed on Azure SQL. This step is also going to help you with containerizing SQL. There are two kinds of file format dacpac and bacpac. And the basic difference is dacpac copies only schema and bacpac copies both schema and data as well. In this post, we are going to see dacpac.

Deploying ASP.NET Core App using Docker

Hi Friends,

In this segment, we will discuss containers. Containerization is another innovation that numerous ASP.NET engineers may not yet have a great deal of involvement with. Docker is the most well known containerization tool today. I’ll clarify how Docker functions at high level and why it’s a decent decision for deploying ASP.NET Core applications. When you set up a server or virtual machine to host your application, think about all the stuff that you need to do. Install dependencies like .NET and third-party libraries, configure things like IIS and NGINX, add environment variables and so on. If you have multiple servers, you have to do this setup manually on each one.
