Anvil AKS Config

This directory contains a Terraform configuration to help you provision a suitable AKS cluster for Anvil.

Provision the AKS Cluster

• Switch to the cluster directory
• Edit _common.tf to provide your own Azure Container in which to store the Terraform state. You will need to create this container manually through Azure.
• Edit config.yml to configure the cluster parameters
  • Edit the location and resource group to suit your requirements. This is where the AKS cluster will be created.
  • Give the cluster a name, node_count, and choose the vm_size of the nodes that should exist. We recommend starting with two or three Standard_D2_v2 nodes - this can always be scaled up later.
• Run terraform init, then terraform apply to create the cluster. This will take a few minutes as AKS clusters and Nodes are slow to provision.
• Check that your local kubectl is configured to talk to the cluster by default. Test by running kubectl get nodes.
