# AKS Construction
|
|
|
|
Building a complete Kubernetes operational environment is hard work! __AKS Construction__ dramatically accelerates this work by providing the templates and deployment scripts to quickly create a __fully configured__, Kubernetes environment, tailored to meet your operational and security needs, ready to run your workloads in production.

|
## QuickStart
|
|
|
|
* #### **Step 1**
|
|
Navigate to the AKS Construction [**helper**](https://azure.github.io/AKS-Construction/)
|
|
|
|
* #### **Step 2** Select your Requirements (optional)
|
|
Select your base `Operational` and `Security` Principles using the presets that have been designed from our field experience
|
|
|
|

<br/>
|
|
> **Note**
|
|
> If following Azure's **Landing Zone** methodology, select `Enterprise Scale` from the dropdown, then select your environment type
|
|
|
|
* #### **Step 3** Fine tune (optional)
|
|
Use the tabs to fine tune your cluster requirements
|
|

|
## Advanced Scenarios
|
|
|
|
The QuickStart provides a nice easy way of creating your AKS Environment, once you've done this it's likely you'll want to consume AKS Construction in a more [advanced scenario](docs/AdvancedUsage.md).
|
|
|
|
## Project components
|
|
|
|
### Helper
|
|
|
|
The Helper is a website that provides a guided experience to creating your AKS environment. It dynamically generates the parameters to call the IaC, and provides deployment options using the Azure CLI, GitHub Actions or Terraform.
|
|
|
|
### IaC - Bicep code files
|
|
|
|
IaC (Infrastructure as Code) code files have been modularised into their component areas. [Main.bicep](bicep/main.bicep) references them and they are expected to be present in the same directory. The Deployment Helper leverages an Arm json compiled version of all the bicep files.
|
|
|
|
Releases are used to version the bicep code files, they can be leveraged directly for use in your project or you can opt to Fork the repo if you prefer.
|
|
|
|
### DevOps - GitHub Actions
|
|
|
|
A number of [GitHub actions](https://github.com/Azure/AKS-Construction/tree/main/.github/workflows) are used in the repo that run on push/pr/schedules. These can be copied into your own repo and customised for your CI/CD pipeline. A robust deployment pipeline is essential when coordinating the deployment of multiple Azure services that work together, additionally there is configuration that cannot be set in the template and that needs to be automated (and tested) consistently.

## Background
|
|
|
|
This project unifies guidance provided by the [AKS Secure Baseline](https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/architecture/reference-architectures/containers/aks/secure-baseline-aks), [Well Architected Framework](https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/architecture/framework/), [Cloud Adoption Framework](https://azure.microsoft.com/cloud-adoption-framework/) and [Azure Landing Zones](https://github.com/Azure/Enterprise-Scale) by providing tangible artifacts to deploy Azure resources from CLI or CI/CD systems.
|
|
|
|
This project is part of the official [AKS Landing Zone Accelerator (Azure Landing Zones)](https://github.com/Azure/AKS-Landing-Zone-Accelerator) architectural approach. To read more about this project and how the it fits with Azure Landing Zones and the AKS Secure Baseline, look [here](referencearchs.md).
|
|
|
|
## Project Principals
|
|
|
|
The guiding principal we have with this project is to focus on the the *downstream use* of the project (see [releases](https://github.com/Azure/AKS-Construction/releases)). As such, these are our specific practices.
|
|
|
|
1. Deploy all components through a single, modular, idempotent bicep template Converge on a single bicep template, which can easily be consumed as a module
|
|
2. Provide best-practice defaults, then use parameters for different environment deployments
|
|
3. Minimise "manual" steps for ease of automation
|
|
4. Maintain quality through validation & CI/CD pipelines that also serve as working samples/docs
|
|
5. Focus on AKS and supporting services, linking to other repos to solve; Demo apps / Developer workstations / Jumpboxes / CI Build Agents / Certificate Authorities
|

## Deployment Configuration
|
|
|
|
If you would like to contribute to this project, you can **develop inside a container** to containerize all the necessary pre-requisite component without requiring them to be installed on the local machine. The environment you will work in will be created using a development container, or dev container hosted on a virtual machine using GitHub Codespaces.
|
|
|
|

## FAQ / Troubleshooting
|
|
|
|
### Subscription is not registered to use namespace Microsoft.OperationsManagement
|
|
|
|
Azure Subscriptions use resource providers to be able to create Azure Services. Sometimes it can be the case that core RP's are not properly registered in your subscription. Take time to read the error message, and follow the steps to resolve. [https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/azure-resource-manager/troubleshooting/error-register-resource-provider?tabs=azure-cli](https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/azure-resource-manager/troubleshooting/error-register-resource-provider?tabs=azure-cli)
|
|
|
|
In the case of Microsoft.OperationsManagement not being registered, you'd run this az cli command to register the provider;
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
az provider register --namespace Microsoft.OperationsManagement
|
|
az provider show --namespace Microsoft.OperationsManagement --query registrationState -o tsv
|
|
```
