Hands-On Kubernetes on Azure

By: Shivakumar Gopalakrishnan, Gunther Lenz

Overview of this book

Microsoft is now one of the most significant contributors to Kubernetes open source projects. Kubernetes helps to create, configure, and manage a cluster of virtual machines that are preconfigured to run containerized applications. This book will be your guide to performing successful container orchestration and deployment of Kubernetes clusters on Azure. You will get started by learning how to deploy and manage highly scalable applications, along with understanding how to set up a production-ready Kubernetes cluster on Azure. As you advance, you will learn how to reduce the complexity and operational overheads of managing a Kubernetes cluster on Azure. By the end of this book, you will not only be capable of deploying and managing Kubernetes clusters on Azure with ease, but also have the knowledge of best practices for working with advanced AKS concepts for complex systems.

Verifying RBAC

Let's give it a spin by creating the RBAC roles on Kubernetes and checking whether it actually works.

Creating the read-only user role

On the cloud shell, connect to your cluster.

Note that you have to specify --admin so that you can work on your cluster:

az aks get-credentials --resource-group handsonaks-rbac --name handsonaks-rbac --admin

Creating the cluster-wide, read-only role

Create the following file and save it as cluster-read-only-role.yaml:

apiVersion: rbac.authorization.k8s.io/v1
kind: ClusterRole
metadata:
labels:
name: read-only
