Architecture Overview

The deploy.sh script creates the following Azure resources using Azure CLI commands:

1. Azure Storage Account: Provides blob storage for vacation activity data.
2. Azure Key Vault: Stores the storage connection string as a secret.
3. Azure Container Registry: Hosts the Docker container image for the Flask web app.
4. Azure Container Instances: Runs the containerized Flask application with public IP and DNS label.

For more information on the sample application, see ACI Blob Storage.
