Microsoft Azure – Azure Kubernetes Service
Microsoft Azure's managed Kubernetes service is called AKS. Creating a cluster on AKS can be done via the Azure CLI.
Getting started
To create a cluster on AKS, you can use the Azure CLI tool and run the following command to create a service principal (a role that the cluster will use to access Azure resources):
az ad sp create-for-rbac --skip-assignment --name myClusterPrincipal
The result of this command will be a JSON object with information on the service principal, which we will use in the next step. This JSON object looks like the following:
{
"appId": "559513bd-0d99-4c1a-87cd-851a26afgf88",
"displayName": "myClusterPrincipal",
"name": "http://myClusterPrincipal",
"password": "e763725a-5eee-892o-a466-dc88d980f415",
"tenant": "72f988bf-90jj-41af-91ab-2d7cd011db48...
