Resource Overview​

Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) is a managed service that enables easy deployment and operation of Kubernetes clusters.
Container-based workloads can be operated by configuring cluster base settings, authentication and authorization (RBAC), network policies, node pool configuration, and API server access control.
