Getting started on Microsoft Azure

Azure Prerequisites

  1. You need an Azure account. Visit http://azure.microsoft.com/ to get started.
  2. Install and configure the Azure cross-platform command-line interface. http://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/xplat-cli/
  3. Make sure you have a default account set in the Azure cli, using azure account set

Prerequisites for your workstation

  1. Be running a Linux or Mac OS X.
  2. Get or build a binary release
  3. If you want to build your own release, you need to have Docker installed. On Mac OS X you can use boot2docker.

Setup

The cluster setup scripts can setup Kubernetes for multiple targets. First modify cluster/kube-env.sh to specify azure:

KUBERNETES_PROVIDER="azure"

Next, specify an existing virtual network and subnet in cluster/azure/config-default.sh:

AZ_VNET=<vnet name>
AZ_SUBNET=<subnet name>

You can create a virtual network:

azure network vnet create <vnet name> --subnet=<subnet name> --location "West US" -v

Now you're ready.

You can then use the cluster/kube-*.sh scripts to manage your azure cluster, start with:

cluster/kube-up.sh

The script above will start (by default) a single master VM along with 4 worker VMs. You can tweak some of these parameters by editing cluster/azure/config-default.sh.

Getting started with your cluster

See a simple nginx example to try out your new cluster.

For more complete applications, please look in the examples directory.

Tearing down the cluster

cluster/kube-down.sh
