App Routing, the best AKS feature ?

When you expose your AKS applications, you typically use ingress. With ingress, you will need to manage:
1) Private and public Ingress Controllers
2) DNS custom domain names
3) TLS certificates
You wish if just there were a managed service that make this task easy ?
Now that service exist. It is called Application Routing.
Here is how it works.

Hi @Houssem Dellai, Thanks for sharing. Could you please showcase with some demo please?

Hi! I am a subscriber and this is exactly what i am looking for! But how late am i?!

[@luisdanielmesa]

I'm using Application Gateway, and I'm managing my own external-dns and I use cert-manager for certificates. Is it worth it to change to app routing? I'm just saving the installation of the nginx ingress controller, which consumes resources, but I guess that's cheaper than Application Gateway. Application Gateway just points to the same public IP for my domain and subdomains, which I think is a waste. I can just point all of them to the @ record and be done with it, I wouldn't even need external-dns.

Application Gateway is good for two reasons: WAF feature and being outside your cluster. I think in your case you are getting similar benefits for both options. Just choose what you are comfortable with :)

@@HoussemDellai Yeah but 12€ per day even without traffic seems a lot!
Maybe I'll start using simple app routing and when the traffic generates enough revenue, or when my customer demands it, it might make sense to add AGIC.
Thanks.
