Hi Horst_Wutscher_Blogg,

 

What would be the Workload?

Should these Containers be Internet Facing or for internal Network Usage?

So are they attached with a Public IP or with a internal Network IP?

 

Will the Customers also need Access to those Resources in Azure?

 

I think from a cost view, having more then one ACI would not be a Problem, as you pay for what you use, so have a ACI with 2 Container or 2 with one Container should cost nearly the same. I would recommend the use of two instances, one for each customer instead of crossusage.

 

Kind Regards, Peter

    Hello Peter_Beckendorf ,

     

    we would like to implement our ACIs with private / internal IPs.

     

    Yes, the internal company customers should get access to Azure Portal.

     

    Yes, one reason is costs. We think, if we deploy one ACi for more internal customers, its is cheaper and also not so much governance and work to do.
