Pre-Requisites
This blog post assumes an Azure, AWS, GCP account is setup. The following links document paid or free tier:
| Azure [Microsoft] | AZ | PAID Tier Account | FREE Tier Account |
| Amazon Web Services | AWS | PAID Tier Account | FREE Tier Account |
| Google Cloud Platform | GCP | PAID Tier Account | FREE Tier Account |
Azure CLI
The Azure Command Line Interface is a set of commands used to create and manage Azure resources. The CLI is available across services designed to get working with Azure quickly with an emphasis on automation.
Linux
Install the Azure CLI on Linux | Choose an installation method e.g. apt (Ubunuty, Debian) | Launch Terminal
|
curl -sL https://aka.ms/InstallAzureCLIDeb | sudo bash |
Mac OS/X
Install Azure CLI on Mac OS/X | Install with Homebrew | Install Homebrew manager if you haven't already!
|
brew update && brew install azure-cli |
Windows
Install Azure CLI on Windows | Microsoft Install (MSI) | Download the Latest MSI of the Azure CLI (64-bit)
|
Download and install https://aka.ms/installazurecliwindowsx64 |
After installing the Azure CLI on Linux, Mac OS/X, Windows confirm the current working version of the CLI:
|
az version |
AWS CLI
The AWS Command Line Interface is a unified tool used to manage your AWS services. Use the AWS CLI tool to download configure and control AWS services from the command line and automate them through scripts.
Linux
Install the AWS CLI on Linux | Linux tab | Command line installer - Linux x86 (64-bit) | Launch the Terminal
|
curl "https://awscli.amazonaws.com/awscli-exe-linux-x86_64.zip" -o "awscliv2.zip" unzip awscliv2.zip sudo ./aws/install |
Mac OS/X
Install the AWS CLI on MacOS/X | macOS tab | GUI installer | Download the macOS pkg file AWSCLIV2.pkg
|
Download and install https://awscli.amazonaws.com/AWSCLIV2.pkg |
Windows
Install the AWS CLI on Windows | Windows tab | Download MSI | Download Windows (64-bit) AWSCLIV2.msi
|
Download and install https://awscli.amazonaws.com/AWSCLIV2.msi |
After installing the AWS CLI on Linux, Mac OS/X, Windows confirm the current working version of the CLI:
|
aws --version |
GCP CLI
The GCP Command Line Interface is used to create and manage Google Cloud resources + services directly from the command line and to perform common platform tasks faster by controlling cloud resources at scale.
Linux
Install the gcloud CLI | Linux tab | Platform Linux 64-bit (x86_64) | Launch Terminal + execute commands:
|
curl -O https://dl.google.com/dl/cloudsdk/channels/rapid/downloads/google-cloud-cli-linux-x86_64.tar.gz tar -xf google-cloud-cli-linux-x86_64.tar.gz | |
| cd google-cloud-sdk | ./install.sh |
Mac OS/X
Install the gcloud CLI | macOS tab | Platform macOS macOS 64-bit (ARM64, Apple silicon) | Launch Terminal
|
curl -O https://dl.google.com/dl/cloudsdk/channels/rapid/downloads/google-cloud-cli-darwin-arm.tar.gz tar -xf google-cloud-cli-darwin-arm.tar.gz | |
| cd google-cloud-sdk | ./install.sh |
Windows
Install the gcloud CLI | Windows tab | Download the Google Cloud CLI installer GoogleCloudSDKInstaller.exe
|
Download and install https://dl.google.com/dl/cloudsdk/channels/rapid/GoogleCloudSDKInstaller.exe |
After installing the gcloud CLI on Linux, Mac OS/X, Windows confirm the current working version of the CLI:
| gcloud init | gcloud version |
Master Key
Next, create master SSH key for secure, automated and controlled access to your Kubernetes infrastructure:
|
cd ~/.ssh ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -N '' -f master_ssh_key |
eval $(ssh-agent -s) ssh-add master_ssh_key |
Azure AKS
Microsoft provides Azure Kubernetes Services as fully managed Kubernetes container orchestration service. Follow all instructions below in order to provision a Kubernetes cluster and end-to-end test its functionality.
