AKS Engine - Units of Kubernetes on Azure!
Project status
This project is deprecated for Azure public cloud customers. Please consider using Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) for managed Kubernetes or Cluster API Provider Azure for self-managed Kubernetes. There are no new features planned; this project will only be updated for CVEs & similar, with Kubernetes 1.24 as the final version to receive updates.
For use on Azure Stack Hub product this project is fully supported until AKS on Azure Stack Hub reaches General Availability at which time it will be deprecated. AKS on Azure Stack Hub is in Public Preview as of December 2021; we encourage customers to test it.
Overview
AKS Engine is an ARM template-driven way to provision a self-managed Kubernetes cluster on Azure. By leveraging ARM (Azure Resource Manager), AKS Engine helps you create, destroy and maintain clusters provisioned with basic IaaS resources in Azure. AKS Engine has limited support for ongoing operational capabilities such as scaling, in-place upgrade, and extensions. The Cluster API Provider for Azure a.k.a. CAPZ provides more complete operational capabilities. AKS Engine remains the tool for managing Kubernetes clusters on Azure Stack Hub as CAPZ does not yet work there.
Getting started
-
Read the CLI Overview for a list of features provided by the
aks-engine
command line tool. -
The Quickstart Guide describes how to download the latest release of
aks-engine
for your environment, and demonstrates how to useaks-engine
to create a Kubernetes cluster on Azure that you will manage and customize.
Please see the FAQ for answers about AKS Engine and its progenitor ACS-Engine.
Join the community
We encourage AKS Engine users to evaluate moving to AKS or to CAPZ, per the project status.
For existing users of AKS Engine, the community guide and developer guide are available, as is the #aks-engine-dev Slack channel.
