    Azure Container Instances
    Develop apps fast without managing virtual machines or having to learn new tools—it's just your application, in a container, running in the cloud. By running your workloads in Azure Container Instances (ACI), you can focus on designing and building your applications instead of managing the infrastructure that runs them. Deploy containers to the cloud with unprecedented simplicity and speed—with a single command. Use ACI to provision additional compute for demanding workloads whenever you need. For example, with the Virtual Kubelet, use ACI to elastically burst from your Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) cluster when traffic comes in spikes. Gain the security of virtual machines for your container workloads, while preserving the efficiency of lightweight containers. ACI provides hypervisor isolation for each container group to ensure containers run in isolation without sharing a kernel.
