Azure Container Registry (ACR) is a private, managed, and secure registry service that allows users to store and manage container images for use with Azure services like Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) and more, or even non-Azure services or on-premises.
This course, “Azure Container Registry (ACR) Made Easy,” is your comprehensive guide to understanding and managing ACR. Throughout the course, we have a lot of practice/hands-on sessions to ensure that you can apply the concepts you learned in real-world situations.
