Question

You create the following resources in an subscription: - An Azure Container Registry instance named Registry1 - An Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) cluster named Cluster1 You create a container image named App1 on your administrative workstation. You need to deploy App1 to cluster1. What should you do first?

Options

  • ARun the aa aks create command.
  • BCreate a host pool on Cluster1
  • CUpload App1 to Registry1.
  • DRun the kubect1 apply command.

Why each option

To deploy a locally created container image to an Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) cluster, the image must first be stored in a container registry.

ARun the aa aks create command.

The `az aks create` command is used to provision a new Azure Kubernetes Service cluster, not to deploy an application to an existing one.

BCreate a host pool on Cluster1

A 'host pool' is a component of Azure Virtual Desktop, not directly relevant to deploying containerized applications to an Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) cluster.

CUpload App1 to Registry1.Correct

Before an Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) cluster can deploy a container image, that image must be accessible from a container registry. Uploading `App1` to `Registry1` (an Azure Container Registry) makes the image available for `Cluster1` to pull and deploy.

DRun the kubect1 apply command.

The `kubectl apply` command is used to deploy a Kubernetes manifest to a cluster, but it requires the container image to already be available in a registry for the cluster to pull from; it's not the initial step if the image is only local.
