After AKS (Azure Kubernetes Service) implementation, which supports agile techniques, the outcomes would be accelerated application development and scalability, self-healing state application, zero-downtime, rolling updates and efficient resource utilization.


Implementation
• Assessment of current application(s) design and business objectives
• Mapping of existing application dependencies
• Proposal of application infrastructure desired state/design with appropriate changes if applicable
• Risk evaluation
• Workshop on required cluster parameters with corresponding cost structure
• Proof of concept with supporting documentation
• Implementation plan including:
• Downtime estimation
• Implementation steps
• Risk assessment
• Rollback plan
• AKS implementation
• Customer acceptance test
• Documentation


Deliverables
• Complete and functional Kubernetes cluster for the application (s)
• Full deployment of application(s) running on Azure Kubernetes Service
• Low level implementation documentation
• Knowledge transfer to in-house engineers


Note: the pricing and the duration for the service depends on a number of factors including (but not limited to) customer size, workloads involved and geographical spread.
