In this blog series I am going to discuss my experiences with MicroK8S, installing it on Windows Subsystem for Linux, and how to connect the cluster to Azure using Azure Arc-Enabled Kubernetes.

The blog will be broken up into the following three sections:

1. Installing MicroK8s on Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL)
2. Azure Arc-enabled servers: Installing Azure Connected Machine Agent
3. Azure Arc-enabled Kubernetes: Connecting my MicroK8S cluster to Azure

Managing MicroK8s Cluster with Azure Arc-Enabled Kubernetes

In this blog I will discuss my experience connecting my newly deploy MicroK8s cluster to Azure using Azure Arc-enabled Kubernetes. In this blog I will go over creating the prerequisites and how to connect this cluster to Azure. This blog assumes we already have MicroK8s installed and running on the WSL instance and that the Azure Arc Agent is installed and connected.

Azure Arc-Enabled Servers - Installing the Azure Connected Machine Agent (Azure Arc Agent)

In this blog I will discuss my experience installing the Azure Arc agent, also known as the Azure Connected Machine Agent in in order to manage this WSL instance within Azure. In this blog I will go over creating the prerequisites needed to install the Arc Agent on Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL)

Installing MicroK8s on WSL

In this blog I will discuss my experience with installing Microk8s on Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL). I will add a short section on how to get WSL 2 installed on Windows 10 which should also work for Windows 11. Then I will go into how to install MicroK8s on WSL. So let the demo begin?

I recently started a new job with a company that isn’t a 100% Microsoft shop. It has been many years since I have worked in a environment that everyone wasn’t drinking the Microsoft Kool-Aid. Not a bad thing if you do, I did and I loved that flavor. However, new job means new challenges and new way of doing things.

In this blog series I am going to discuss my experiences with MicroK8S. Since that is a solution that seems to be one of the favorites in a lot of meetings I am in. So,sit right back and hear my tail, a tail of a fateful experience, that started from my lack of experience, aboard this MicroK8s ship! The blogger a bearded and burly man, a learning, eager and pure. Many people will try to read this blog, for a 3 hour technical deep dive for sure. (Thanks Gilligan! I am guessing just my older readers will understand this one?)
