Adventures in IT Administration

This article is written to be less of a walk through and more of an account of the practical project as a side-by-side with the Kubernetes Mini-Series. This project will continue as I learn more about Docker, Kubernetes, AKS, and Azure DevOps. It'll bring all the pieces together in a real-world type of way with some really cool expected results. Ultimately the goal is to host a Minecraft server in AKS in a highly-available way.  To start with I'll be creating a new image of Ubuntu Server with the Bedrock version of Minecraft Server.

There is a pretty good amount of chatter around IT infrastructure these days regarding buzzwords like "serverless", "containerization", "infrastructure as code", "agile", "devops", and the like. Through the next series of articles on Kubernetes, I hope to unravel the tightly wound tangle of technologies and concepts surrounding the next generation of infrastructure management.
