Webinar Overview:
Learn how to keep AKS reliable, resilient, and cost-efficient in production. Explore observability, failure testing, upgrades, backup and cost optimization, with practical guidance for establishing an effective day-2 operations model.

Webinar Agenda:
• Why day-2 operations decide whether AKS succeeds or becomes a burden
• Observability: managed Prometheus, Grafana and Container Insights with KQL
• Live demo: breaking things on purpose with Azure Chaos Studio and watching alerts and autoscaling respond
• Upgrades without drama: auto-upgrade channels, maintenance windows and node image updates
• Cost control: spot node pools, start/stop clusters and cost analysis
• Backup and recovery for AKS
• A day-2 operations runbook you can take back to your organization

Audience:
Platform and SRE Teams, IT Leaders, Architects, FinOps and Governance Leads, and technical decision-makers planning an AKS rollout

Webinar Overview:
Learn how to secure AKS without slowing application delivery. Explore identity, GitOps, policy, and automated security controls, with practical demonstrations of how to reduce secrets, prevent configuration drift, and securely ship applications at scale.

Webinar Agenda:
• Why most AKS security gaps come from secrets and drift, not exotic attacks
• Workload Identity and Key Vault: running apps with zero stored secrets
• GitOps with Flux: change in Git, cluster reconciles, drift gets reverted
• Azure Policy and Deployment Safeguards: blocking a privileged pod live
• Defender for Containers and image scanning in your pipeline
• Live demo: a GitHub Actions pipeline with OIDC deploying securely into AKS
• A security baseline checklist for your own clusters

Audience:
Platform, DevOps and Security Engineers, Architects, and teams responsible for secure delivery on Azure

Webinar Overview:
Learn how to build AKS right from day one. Explore the key architecture decisions across deployment models, networking, identity, and scaling, with a live Bicep deployment demonstrating how to establish a scalable, production-ready AKS foundation.

Webinar Agenda:
• AKS Automatic vs Standard: what Azure manages for you and what you still own
• Networking that scales: Azure CNI Overlay with Cilium and ingress
• Live demo: deploying a production-ready cluster with Bicep
• Autoscaling with KEDA and node auto-provisioning
• Pulling images from Azure Container Registry with managed identity
• Where teams get stuck moving from a first cluster to production, and what to plan for next

Audience:
Cloud Architects, Platform and DevOps Engineers, Developers, Technical Leads, and anyone evaluating AKS
