AKS Engine - Units of Kubernetes on Azure!
Project status
This project is stable, meaning the pace of new features is intentionally low. AKS Engine is maintained by teams who depend on it including AKS Engine on Azure Stack Hub.
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-enginecommand line tool. -
The Quickstart Guide describes how to download the latest release of
aks-enginefor your environment, and demonstrates how to useaks-engineto 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
If you are committed to using AKS Engine longer term and would like to become a project maintainer, please reach out to us via the #aks-engine-dev Slack channel! The community guide covers everything you need to know about the AKS Engine community and how you can contribute. The developer guide will help you onboard as a developer. The AKS Engine community is committed to integrating and validating new versions of Kubernetes into AKS Engine. We encourage AKS Engine users to evaluate moving to CAPZ as it provides stronger support for managing the cluster lifecycle compared to AKS Engine.
