A smart cloud solution architect always has the right tools in their toolbox.
In this challenge we'll be validating that we have all the tools we will need to complete our challenges.
- Install the recommended toolset: (assumes Windows)
- Windows Subsystem for Linux
- Azure CLI
- git
- Kubectl (kubernetes CLI)
- Visual Studio Code. Recommended extensions:
- These tools could also be run on MacOs, or alternatively, you could use the Azure Cloud Shell
You will need an Azure Subscription to run these exercises. Confirm with your coach that you have appropriate access to an Azure Subscription.
While not 100% required, it is highly recommended that the team set up a repo to share code, manifests, snippets, etc. Feel free to use your preferred source code control system: GitHub, Azure DevOps, etc. If you have access to GitHub Codespaces, it makes an excellent development environment for this hack!
Using git, clone the repo https://github.com/onemtc/AKSHack.git
. We'll be using this in subsequent challenges.
- You have a bash shell at your disposal (WSL, Mac, Linux or Azure Cloud Shell)
- Running
az --version
shows the version of your Azure CLI - Visual Studio Code is installed.
- Everyone on the team is enabled as a co-owner on the appropriate Azure Subscription
