Azure without managing virtual machines or orchestration.
15. What is Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS)? A managed Kubernetes
container orchestration service simplifying deployment, management, and
operations of Kubernetes.
16. What is Azure DevOps? A suite of tools for planning, developing,
deploying, and operating applications (Boards, Repos, Pipelines, Test Plans,
Artifacts).
17. What is CI/CD? Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment. CI
automates building and testing; CD automates deployment to production.
18. What is Azure Application Insights? An application performance
management service for monitoring, diagnosing, and understanding application
health.
19. What is Azure Service Bus? A messaging service for decoupled
applications using queues and topics for reliable communication.
