What is Azure Arc-enabled Kubernetes?
Azure Arc-enabled Kubernetes allows you to connect and manage Kubernetes clusters from any environment within Azure. This means you can oversee and configure clusters running on different platforms, whether in public clouds like GCP or AWS, or on-premises data centers such as VMware vSphere. By consolidating your Kubernetes resources into a single control plane, it enhances the development and operational experience for running cloud-native applications.
What Kubernetes distributions are supported?
Azure Arc-enabled Kubernetes is compatible with any Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) certified Kubernetes clusters. This includes those hosted on various public cloud providers and on-premises solutions. The Azure Arc team has collaborated with industry partners to ensure that these distributions conform to Azure Arc standards.
What functionalities does Azure Arc-enabled Kubernetes offer?
Once your Kubernetes clusters are connected to Azure, you can manage them at scale by viewing all connected clusters, configuring deployments using GitOps, monitoring with Azure Monitor for containers, and enforcing security with Microsoft Defender for Kubernetes. Additionally, you can apply governance policies through Azure Policy for Kubernetes and manage access using Azure role-based access control (RBAC).
