Content coming soon...

Suggested Topics

• End-to-end deployment flow: ACR image to Container App to Postgres
• Creating a Container App that runs your ingestion pipeline
• Passing database connection strings as environment variables in Container Apps
• Writing pipeline results to Azure Postgres from within the container
• Verifying results: querying Postgres to confirm data was written
• Monitoring: checking container logs for errors and performance
• Troubleshooting deployment failures: image pull errors, crash loops, connection issues
• Automating deployments: triggering Container App updates from GitHub Actions
• Best practices: health checks, restart policies, and graceful shutdown
• Creating an Azure Key Vault and storing database credentials as secrets
• Referencing Key Vault secrets from Container Apps environment variables
• Setting up a Log Analytics workspace for container app monitoring
• Viewing container logs, errors, and metrics in Log Analytics
• End-to-end flow: Container App uses Managed Identity to read secrets from Key Vault, connects to Azure PostgreSQL passwordlessly
