Kubernetes azure-cloud-controller-manager

Overview

Kubernetes azure-cloud-controller-manager is a Kubernetes component that supports interoperability with Azure cloud platform. It runs together with other master components to provide the Kubernetes cluster’s control plane.

Kubernetes cloud-controller-manager is a Kubernetes component designed for running controllers that would interact with various cloud platforms. It operates with the cloud through Kubernetes cloud provider interface, meanwhile different cloud platforms would have corresponding implementations of the cloud provider interface.

This project provides an Azure specialized version of Kubernetes cloud controller manager: it depends on Kubernetes project and builds upon cloud-controller-manager/app. This project also incorporates Azure cloud provider, which implements Kubernetes cloud provider interface using azure-sdk-for-go.

Usage

Kubernetes azure-cloud-controller-manager will release container image at location TBD, and can be run as containers. For development, you could also build a standalone binary and run.

We also recommend using acs-engine to deploy Kubernetes cluster, which supports deploying Kubernetes azure-cloud-controller-manager for Kubernetes v1.8+, see doc TBD for details.
