Earlier this year, Kubernetes Apps in the Azure Marketplace became Generally Available on Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS). With Kubernetes Apps, teams can extend the capabilities of their deployments with a vibrant ecosystem of tested and transactable third-party solutions from industry-leading partners and popular open-source offerings. Now we’re excited to announce that we are expanding the range of offers to include Arc-Enabled Kubernetes. Azure Arc-Enabled Kubernetes allows you to connect, manage, and operate Kubernetes clusters and applications running anywhere using Azure Arc. With this offer expansion, Kubernetes apps on Marketplace can be deployed to Azure Arc-enabled Kubernetes connected clusters.
An Azure Arc-enabled Kubernetes connected cluster is a Kubernetes cluster that is hosted on an on-premises, hybrid, or multi-cloud environment and connected to Azure Arc. This type of cluster allows customers to manage their on-premises and cloud-based resources from a single unified platform. It also provides a secure, reliable, and cost-effective way to manage and deploy applications across multiple environments. The Azure Arc-enabled connected cluster is designed to simplify the deployment and management of hybrid cloud architecture. With the GA release of Azure Arc-Enabled Kubernetes connected cluster-based apps on Azure Marketplace, we have pre-defined billing meters available. Pre-defined meters allow customers to easily monitor and track their usage of Azure Arc-enabled connected clusters and applications. With usage based pre-defined meters, customers can quickly identify and analyze their usage of AKS applications on Azure Arc-enabled connected clusters and take action to optimize their cost savings. Get started today with Azure Arc-Enabled Kubernetes on Azure Marketplace!
