What challenges did John Mosquera address when transitioning a client's application from Azure VMs to a containerized solution?
assistant
The client faced high operational costs, limited scalability during peak trading hours, and inconsistent performance due to manual configuration drift. John identified these issues during an infrastructure assessment and proposed a containerized architecture using Docker and Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) to address them. By refactoring the application into microservices and implementing a CI/CD pipeline, he ensured modularity, better resource utilization, and consistent deployments.
