Selecting the Optimal Container for Azure AI: Docker, ACI, or AKS?

Deploying Azure AI services in containers like DockerAzure Container Instances (ACI), or Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) provides several key benefits for organizations that want to build, scale, and manage AI-based applications. Here's a breakdown of why each container option is valuable:

 

  • Portability: Containers allow AI models and services to be packaged with all their dependencies. You can run the same environment across different platforms (local machines, on-premises, cloud, etc.).

  • Ease of Testing: Developers can easily test and fine-tune AI services locally using Docker before deploying them in a production environment.

  • Consistency: Docker ensures that the environment is consistent across all stages of development, reducing the risk of "it works on my machine" problems.

  • Isolation: Each AI model or service runs in its isolated environment, minimizing conflicts between dependencies.

 

  • Simplicity: ACI provides a serverless container hosting environment, making it a great option for quick deployment without needing to manage complex infrastructure.

  • Scalability: Though not as robust as AKS, ACI allows you to scale individual container instances based on demand, which is good for running lightweight AI services.

  • Cost-Effective: You only pay for the compute resources your container consumes, which makes it ideal for short-lived, bursty AI workloads.

  • Integration with Azure Services: ACI integrates easily with other Azure services like Azure Machine Learning, Azure Functions, and Azure Logic Apps, making it easier to run AI models within broader workflows.

 

  • Scalability: AKS provides powerful, enterprise-grade orchestration and can manage thousands of containers, allowing AI services to scale dynamically based on demand.

  • High Availability: AKS offers automated load balancing, fault tolerance, and self-healing capabilities, making it ideal for deploying critical AI services in production.

  • Microservices: With AKS, you can break down AI services into microservices, each containerized and independently deployable, enabling modular and efficient application development.

  • CI/CD Pipeline Integration: AKS can easily integrate with DevOps workflows, enabling seamless updates, model retraining, and deployment of AI services.

  • Cost Efficiency for Large-Scale Workloads: When dealing with large-scale AI services, AKS provides better cost control through autoscaling, resource pooling, and spot instances.

 

 

  • Fast Deployment: Containers allow for rapid deployment of AI services without lengthy setup or configuration processes.

  • Cloud and Hybrid Flexibility: AI services in containers can be run on-premises, in any cloud (including Azure, AWS, and GCP), or in hybrid environments. This flexibility supports diverse deployment strategies.

  • Version Control: Containers provide an isolated environment where different versions of AI models or services can run in parallel, enabling A/B testing or the running of multiple models simultaneously.

 

 

  • Docker: Best for local development, testing, and small-scale deployments.

  • ACI: Ideal for lightweight, short-lived, or experimental AI workloads requiring quick deployment without the need to manage infrastructure.

  • AKS: Best for complex, large-scale, and mission-critical AI applications requiring scalability, orchestration, and high availability.

 

By deploying Azure AI services in these containerized environments, you gain flexibility, scalability, and the ability to manage the lifecycle of AI models efficiently across development and production stages.

Azure Elastic SAN for Azure VMware Solution: now Generally Available

Have you been looking to expand your storage on Azure VMware Solution (AVS), but do not need the extra compute performance and the associated costs that come with adding more nodes? Are you looking for a more cost-efficient alternative storage solution that is easy to set up and manage? If so, you will be as excited as we are to learn about the general availability of Azure Elastic SAN for AVS – out today!

Using Azure Elastic SAN to expand your storage

Azure Elastic SAN is Azure’s latest addition to our family of block storage products, unique in part because of its support for remote block storage (iSCSI) and cost-efficient provisioning model for deployment at scale. Because Azure VMware Solution supports attaching iSCSI datastores as a persistent storage option, you can create Virtual Machine File System (VMFS) datastores with Azure Elastic SAN volumes and attach them to clusters of your choice. By using VMFS datastores backed by Azure Elastic SAN, you can expand your storage with an Azure deployed, fully-managed and VMware Certified storage area network instead of scaling the clusters.

With this integration, we add an important tool for optimizing workloads, whether they are large-scale databases requiring high storage capacity, or performance-intensive, mission-critical applications. Not every application requires the performance of directly attached storage, and many workloads, like backup and disaster recovery use cases or other capacity intensive workloads, can benefit from a more cost-efficient extensible storage solution. Azure Elastic SAN can be deployed and connected straight from the Azure portal, and at $0.06-0.08 per GiB per month (based on current pricing in East US), it is the cheapest per GiB storage option for AVS, while still offering scalable performance for a variety of use cases.

 

How to optimize price-performance with Azure Elastic SAN

When setting up an Elastic SAN, you create a pool of resources that is shared among the “volumes” within the SAN. Each of these volumes can be exposed as a datastore to your AVS SDDC. While Elastic SAN volumes share the performance you provision at the SAN level, the individual volumes have their own performance limits (shown in table below). By design, the individual volume limit is high so we can accommodate traffic bursts on any given volume. If you require more than 80,000 IOPS, you could spread your workloads across multiple volumes, placing them on different datastores.

The pool of resources for your Elastic SAN is built up out of 1 TiB units: “Base units” and “Capacity-only units”. Base units provide both storage capacity and performance, while Capacity-only units provide just storage capacity. In practice, you start adding Base units until you reach the desired level of performance, then in case your storage capacity requirements are not yet met, you can add additional Capacity-only units. Both units offer local (LRS) or zonal (ZRS) redundant storage, and are priced as follows:

Word, Excel, and PowerPoint for macOS – Planned update to compatibility Office add-ins and ODBC drivers

A planned update for Office on macOS is set to roll out, requiring Office add-ins and ODBC drivers to be codesigned with a valid Apple Developer ID. This update, expected in mid-November 2024, may affect workflows that utilize unsigned dynamic libraries. As developers work to ensure compliance, admins are encouraged to verify and prepare for the update. This change demands compliance to promote code integrity and compliance with macOS development standards. Note that this change is unlikely to affect most users since most dynamic libraries used with Office apps are already codesigned. However, developers who use unsigned or ad-hoc-signed dynamic libraries within Word, Excel, or PowerPoint for macOS may need to get an updated version of the product from the original software developer. To ensure a seamless transition, developers are reminded to ensure their products are codesigned with an Apple Developer ID in preparation for the rollout. Admins may take action by blocking all non-Microsoft libraries from running within Visual Basic macros, but it should be considered only if necessary for the organization’s requirements on macOS computers. This update is set to appear in production in mid-November 2024.
