It could be faster. The speed is not good in our country. The migration process takes a long time. We don't have fast internet services, and that slows us down. Standard support could be more helpful and responsive. We'd like to have more stable updates. It updates too often. Instead of updating more often, they should update less often and offer very stable updates.
In terms of the container strategy, they need to make it more compliant with the Linux OS. The containers are currently, Azure services. In terms of large Fortune 500 companies, they are very much into Microsoft services, and it is quite operatable. In SMEs, in small, and medium case businesses, their landscape is scattered. They are not predominantly Microsoft and, depending on different geographies, their OS could be different. They might want to do a bit more functionalities on the Linux OS side as well. They need to be far more compatible, beyond Microsoft.
If Microsoft Azure can provide GUI dashboards for end-users and administrators to work separately to manage all the Kubernetes clusters without a need to connect to Azure environments and through CLI it would be better. In an upcoming release, the solution could improve by having better security. Security is a big challenge in the containers and if Microsoft could provide a simpler method to authenticate or authorize and integrate security features to vulnerability channels, for example, online scan images and Docker containers, it would be helpful. It then would be possible to integrate the whole stack of containers with Microsoft Azure technology. You would not need to rely on Linux features and would be able to rely on Microsoft technology, such as Active Directory and encryption protocols.
I believe that the support can be faster. I would also like to see easier implementation and better documentation. But it's also a Pandora's box. I believe that one can always do better. I also believe that security and integration can be better, so it would be nice to see an improvement there.
Learn what your peers think about Microsoft Azure Container Service. Get advice and tips from experienced pros sharing their opinions. Updated: April 2024.
Azure Container Service optimizes the configuration of popular open source tools and technologies specifically for Azure. You get an open solution that offers portability for both your containers and your application configuration. You select the size, the number of hosts, and choice of orchestrator tools, and Container Service handles everything else.
Since the product is fully managed, it is expensive.

In the future, I would like to see it generalized and have the ability to better integrate with open-source tools.

The customization is an area that needs improvement. In the next release, I would like to see integration with the Microsoft Business ERP solution.
