This sample demo app consists of a group of containerized microservices that can be easily deployed into an Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) cluster. This is meant to show a realistic scenario using a polyglot architecture, event-driven design, and common open source back-end services (eg - MongoDB).
Note: This is not meant to be an example of perfect code to be used in production, but more about showing a realistic application running in AKS.
To walk through a quick deployment of this application, see the AKS Quickstart.
To walk through a complete experience where this code is packaged into container images, uploaded to Azure Container Registry, and then run in and AKS cluster, see the AKS Tutorials.
The application has the following services:
| Service | Description |
|---|---|
makeline-service |
This service handles processing orders from the queue and completing them (Golang) |
order-service |
This service is used for placing orders (Javascript) |
store-front |
Web app for customers to place and manage orders (Javascript) |
store-admin |
Web app used by store employees to view orders in queue and manage products (Javascript) |
virtual-customer |
Simulates order creation on a scheduled basis (Javascript) |
virtual-worker |
Simulates order completion on a scheduled basis (Javascript) |
ai-service |
Optional service for adding generative text and graphics creation |
mongodb |
MongoDB instance for persisted data |
rabbitmq |
RabbitMQ for an order queue |

This document has some intial commands to set this up in your own environment. Eventually these steps will be in the Azure docs in the links at the top.
