Updated maximum nodes limit – Azure Function App – AKS Azure CNI IP address calculation

Just a short information about the update I have done for the Azure Function App doing the AKS Azure CNI IP address calculation.

Since the last update there has been a change to the maximum nodes per cluster limit supported by AKS.

Maximum nodes per cluster (only with multiple node pools and VMSS): 1000

-> https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/aks/use-multiple-node-pools#limitations

This change is now implemented in the Function App and you can access the API endpoint under https://akscnicalc.azurewebsites.net/api/akscnicalc.

curl -X POST https://akscnicalclinux.azurewebsites.net/api/akscnicalc -H "Content-Type: application/json" --data-raw '{"nodes": 1000, "pods": 250, "scale": 0, "ilbs": 0}' | jq .
{
  "nodes": 1000,
  "pods": 250,
  "scale": 0,
  "ilbs": 0,
  "ipaddresses": 251251
}

Instructions on how to use the API endpoint are provided in the following blog post.

You can find the code of the Azure Function App on my GitHub repository.

If you would like to run the Function App as FaaS on Kubernetes, use the Docker image on Docker Hub.
