Azure Active Directory B2B

This is an extension of Azure Active Directory Service.

Simplest way to think is if the organization wants to collaborate with another organization by sharing their applications, then the IT has to think of a way to provide access to the users.
Also policies have to be set to remove the access and restrictions around the access to applications.

Azure AD B2B does this for you.
Users will be sent a invite using which they can use their own preferred account to access the applications.
Users can use their social networking account to access the applications, while Azure AD strong policies take care of the applications that can be accessed by users.
If the organizations want to use their corporate accounts, then the users need to create a password first and use their corporate account. As per the Microsoft in the future they will collaborate for SSO so that users do not need to create new passwords.
Azure AD B2B will also allow users to be added to administrator groups.

What is the difference between Azure AD, B2B and B2C?
Azure AD
Azure AD is a identity as a service (IdaaS) for authentication and authorization of cloud applications.
Organization users login to your domain, dedicated for your organization.
Users on premise are continuously synchronized to Azure AD

Azure AD B2B
This is an extension of Azure AD. 
Users from different organizations will be provided access to your organization applications.
Members are invited to access the applications.
Cross organization collaboration

Azure AD B2C
This is similar to AD but has different functionality.
Consumer are allowed to sign-up and sign-in to your applications.
Used widely for mobile and web apps that have to be open to wider users not restricted to corporates.
Eg. You have created a new Skill app, you want to extend it to all users.
End users want to know their Skill, so they sign up for your app and use it.

Azure Active Directory

Azure Active directory (AAD) is a Identity as a Service. This is a smaller subset of Active directory. This is not a replacement to active directory at all. Azure active directory provides the identity services to the mobile apps and web apps in Private cloud. These apps may be connected to on-premise applications. So an SSO is enabled for these apps. So Azure active directory has very simple functionality. Create Users, Groups. Map groups to network security groups and provide the authentication to the resources. When you login to Azure portal, right upper corner of the screen has username along with the domain. Domain or tenant or organization are used interchangeably. Management of Users and Groups: Cloud identity (create users manually)  Directory synchronized identifiers (users are synchronized)  Add users Adding a cloud identity users makes the user as Guest When you do directory synchronization on Premise AD Groups are synched up wi...

Kubernetes: 18. Rollout and Rollback

Deployment When a deployment is created, it triggers a rollout Rollout creates a new revision (version) In the future when new deployment is created,  a new rollout is created The new rollout creates one more "new" version These versions help to keep track of the changes and rollback if necessary Deployment Strategy First strategy is delete and recreate strategy.  Delete all the existing pods and deploy the new updated pods But this comes with application downtime Second strategy and default strategy is Rolling update strategy Kubernetes deletes one pod at a time in the older version and in its place creates a one pod at a time in the newer version Update Strategy Updates can be many things like updating the labels, docker image, replicas etc These are directly updated into the deployment file and the changes are applied When the changes are applied using kubectl apply command, a new rollout and a new revision is created Another way to update the image name is to use the kube...

Kubernetes: 19. Configure Application

Configuring application consists of Configuring commands and arguments on applications Configuring environment variables Configuring secrets Docker Commands docker run ubuntu  -> Runs ubuntu container and exit, container CMD is set to [bash], so the container quitely exits docker run ubuntu echo "Hello World" -> Runs ubuntu container, prints "Hello World" exits quitely. To update the default settings, create your own image from the base image lets call this ubuntu-sleeper image FROM ubuntu CMD sleep 5 CMD can also be mentioned in the JSON format like CMD ["sleep", "5"] Note that with JSON format the first element should always be the command to execute,  for eg, it CANNOT be ["sleep 5"] Run build the new ubuntu-sleeper image and run the new image docker build -t ubuntu-sleeper .  -> Build the image docker run ubuntu-sleeper -> Run the new image So the new image will launch ubuntu container, sleep for 5 seconds and quitely ex...
