Elasticity
Elastisitet: Du he møje load på en tjeneste så du øke f.eks RAM eller vCPU på server/AKS for at det sga fungera bra.
Agility
Agility: Du kan spinna opp en ny tjeneste rimelig fort.
Azure Service Health
After an outage, Service Health provides official incident reports called root cause analysis (RCA), which you can share with stakeholders
Azure ExpressRoute
For environments where you need greater bandwidth and even higher levels of security, Azure ExpressRoute is the best approach. ExpressRoute provides a dedicated private connectivity to Azure that doesn’t travel over the internet. (You’ll learn more about ExpressRoute in a separate unit later in this module.)
Azure Monitor
Azure Monitor is a platform that collects metric and logging data, such as CPU percentages. The data can be used to trigger autoscaling.
Application Insights is a feature of Azure Monitor that allows you to monitor running applications, automatically detect performance anomalies, and use built-in analytics tools to see what users do on an app.
Azure Advisor
Azure Advisor evaluates Azure resources and makes recommendations to help improve reliability, security, and performance, achieve operational excellence, and reduce costs.
The five recommendation categories for Azure Advisor are: Reliability, Security, Performance, Operational Excellence, and Cost.
Network Security Groups (NSGs)
Filter network traffic to and from Azure resources on Azure Virtual Networks. Set inbound and outbound rules. Inbound / Outbound.
Feks, all trafikk fra visse IPer, eller fra LoadBalancer, eller INGEN ting fra 443.
Regions
Regions: regions are made up of one or more datacenters in close proximity. 60 regioner globalt. 140 land.
Region pair
Region pair: Eks: East US –> West US minst 300 miles seperations
Availability Zones
Availability Zones: Fysisk sepererte datasenter, innenfor samme region
Vertical scaling
also known as “scaling up”, is the process of adding resources to increase the power of an existing server.
Horizontal scaling
also known as “scaling out”, is the process of adding more servers that function together as one unit.
Availability sets
Availability sets are a way for you to ensure your application remains online if a high-impact maintenance event is required, or if a hardware failure occurs.
Availability sets are made up of Update domains (UD) and Fault domains (FD):
Azure Resource Manager (ARM)
is the deployment and management service for Azure. It provides a consistent management layer that enables you to create, update, and delete resources in your Azure subscription. You can use its access control, auditing, and tagging features to secure and organize your resources after deployment.
ARM templates define an application’s infrastructure requirements for a repeatable deployment that is done in a consistent manner. A validation step ensures that all resources can be created in the proper order based on dependencies, in parallel and idempotent.
Azure Reservations
Azure Reservations offers discounted prices on certain Azure services. Azure Reservations can save you up to 72 percent compared to pay-as-you-go prices. To receive a discount, you can reserve services and resources by paying in advance.
Spending limits can suspend a subscription when the spend limit is reached.
