This is achieved by providing the Kubernetes dashboard as an AKS add-on like the Azure Monitor for containers integration, AKS virtual nodes or the HTTP application routing. I stumbled over that capability in the Terraform Azure provider documentation for…

Updating the base image of a VMSS-based AKS cluster
Earlier this year I had written a blog post about updating the VMSS base image of an aks-engine cluster. -> https://www.danielstechblog.io/updating-the-base-image-of-an-vmss-aks-engine-cluster/ Today, we focus on Azure Kubernetes Service running with VMSS. Microsoft releases updates regularly to the AKS service and refreshes also the base image for the AKS worker nodes. -> https://github.com/azure/aks/releases This week I…

You do not want to give them access via SSH to the AKS Engine master for two reasons. First,…

Using an AKS Engine cluster with Azure Active Directory integration
As you might already know you can run an Azure Kubernetes Service cluster with Azure Active Directory integration for fine-grained RBAC role definitions. I have written a blog post about that awhile ago, if you need further information. -> https://www.danielstechblog.io/azure-kubernetes-service-and-azure-active-directory-integration/ Same as with AKS you can have AKS Engine clusters with AAD integration as well.…
