Deploying an Azure AKS cluster
In this section, we will walk through the steps to deploy a Kubernetes cluster using Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS). To get started with AKS, you need an Azure account. First, go to https://azure.com, click Try Azure for free, and then click Start free. This will allow you to start a free trial account on Azure. You will need to provide some basic information, such as your email and phone number, to set up the account. Make sure you use a valid email as Azure will send a verification code to complete the signup process. Once your account has been created, you will be directed to the Azure portal. This is the main dashboard for managing all your Azure resources.
At this point, it’s recommended to install the Azure CLI on your local machine. The Azure CLI allows you to manage Azure resources from the command line. Follow the instructions at https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/cli/azure/install-azure-cli to install it on Linux, macOS, or Windows.
