Companies wanting a tool to seamlessly manage Kubernetes clusters at scale
About Azure Kubernetes Fleet Manager
Easily handle multicluster scenarios for Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) clusters such as workload propagation, north-south load balancing (for traffic flowing into member clusters), and upgrade orchestration across multiple clusters. Fleet cluster enables centralized management of all your clusters at scale. The managed hub cluster takes care of the upgrades and Kubernetes cluster configuration for you. Kubernetes configuration propagation lets you use policies and overrides to disseminate objects across fleet member clusters. North-south load balancer orchestrates traffic flow across workloads deployed in multiple member clusters of the fleet. Group any combination of your Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) clusters to simplify multi-cluster workflows like Kubernetes configuration propagation and multi-cluster networking. Fleet requires a hub Kubernetes cluster to store configurations for placement policy and multicluster networking.
