EventHubDataMover

An application to migrate data from one eventhub to another in real time and deployed to AKS

Once the .NET Application is setup:

Publish the app

• Right click on the app and select publish

---

---

Send the app to ACR(without making use of docker)

• After selecting publish create a new profile in order to push to ACR
• Select the Second option, i.e, Docker Container Registry
• And then proceed to choose Azure Container Registry.
• Which automatically searches, the Azure account linked with microsoft account signed in, for any registry instances and brings it up.
• Select the required registry and proceed to choose the .NET SDK build and not the docker desktop option.

---

Publishing the App

• Once the profile has been created the App can be published(it does take a while the first time because of the inital build process)
• And the image is now uploaded onto ACR with a name same as your project name.

---

Deploying the App onto AKS

• Now as I dont have access to an RBAC token. I deployed the application to AKS locally by making use of kubectl and a app-deployment.yaml file. The file

apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
  name: eventhubdatamover
spec:
  replicas: 1
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      app: eventhubdatamover
  template:
    metadata:
      labels:
        app: eventhubdatamover
    spec:
      containers:
      - name: eventhubdatamover
        image: ACRcrg.azurecr.io/eventhubdatamover:latest
        ports:
        - containerPort: 80
        imagePullPolicy: Always
---
apiVersion: v1
kind: Service
metadata:
  name: my-app-service
spec:
  type: LoadBalancer
  selector:
    app: eventhubdatamover
  ports:
    - protocol: TCP
      port: 80
      targetPort: 80

• In order to deploy the app by making use of above created yaml we can use the following commands

kubectl apply -f app-deployment.yaml
kubectl get deployments
kubectl get pods
kubectl get service my-app-service(or whatever depending on your app-deployment.yaml)

---

Checking the logs

• We can obtain the logs of the deployed application in two ways. Either the cli or ny using the gui/website.

• In order to check the logs via the cli

kubectl logs <podname>

• In order to view the logs on the GUI:
  • Head on to the portal
  • Go to your Kubernetes Service
  • Monitoring -> Insights -> Controllers -> Select the application you deployed

---

For maintaing sync

• Now whenever a change occurs we would usually trigger/activate a pipeline
• That would rebuild the image and maintain sync with AKS
• But in this case without an RBAC a pipeline cannot be maintainer
• But for kubectl we can use the below command which pulls the latest image it can find from the ACR

kubectl rollout restart deployment eventhubdatamover
