- You have access to an Azure Subscription, with sufficient credit.
Before you get started, you will setup Azure Cloud Shell and Azure Kubernetes Service.
-
In your browser open Azure Cloud Shell by navigating to https://shell.azure.com.
You will use Azure Cloud Shell for all labs in this workshop. See here for some tips and tricks (like how to copy and paste).
-
Check which subscription you have connected to:
az account show
-
If you prefer, you can switch to a different subscription:
az account set --subscription <subscription-name>
-
Within Cloud Shell, run the following command to download and execute the setup script:
bash <(curl -Ls https://aka.ms/ckad-workshop/setup-labs)
This script does the following:
- Create a new resource group.
- Deploy an AKS cluster.
- Obtains the credentials, allowing you to use
kubectl
. - Clones this GitHub repository.
-
This will take approximately 10 minutes to complete. In the meantime, we'll explore some Kubernetes fundamentals and look at some CKAD exam tips and tricks.
