Azure Container Instances’ (ACI) enterprise customers asked for a way to authenticate with an Azure Container Registry (ACR) instance that runs behind a private endpoint without having to include service principal ID and password directly in their container group definition. We are excited to announce that ACI is now an ACR Trusted Service. This allows customers to use Managed Identity (MI), instead of plain-text secrets, to authenticate and pull container group images from a premium SKU ACR instance running behind a private endpoint.
Try out Managed Identity authenticated image pulls with ACI today by using this tutorial.
