Start ArangoDB on Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS)

Requirements

• kubectl (version >= 1.10)
• helm
• Azure CLI

Deploy cluster

• In Azure dashboard choose Create a resource
• Choose Kubernetes Service

Cluster basics (version >=1.10)

Cluster authentication (Enable RBAC)

Wait for cluster to be created

Move to control using kubectl

• Login to Azure using CLI

$ az login
  [
    {
      "cloudName": "AzureCloud",
      "id": "...",
      "isDefault": true,
      "name": "ArangoDB-INC",
      "state": "Enabled",
      "tenantId": "...",
      "user": {
        "name": "xxx@arangodb.com",
        "type": "user"
      }
    }
  ]

• Get AKS credentials to merge with local config, using resource group andcluster names used for above deployment

  $ az aks get-credentials --resource-group clifton --name ArangoDB

• Verify successful merge

$ kubectl get svc
  NAME         TYPE        CLUSTER-IP   EXTERNAL-IP   PORT(S)   AGE
  kubernetes   ClusterIP   10.0.0.1     <none>        443/TCP   38m

• Initialize helm

$ kubectl create serviceaccount --namespace kube-system tiller
  serviceaccount/tiller created

$ kubectl create clusterrolebinding tiller-cluster-rule \
      --clusterrole=cluster-admin --serviceaccount=kube-system:tiller
  clusterrolebinding.rbac.authorization.k8s.io/tiller-cluster-rule created

$ helm init --service-account tiller
  $HELM_HOME has been configured at /home/xxx/.helm.
