Private Kubernetes cluster in AKS with Azure Private Link
Today, we’ll take a look at a new feature in AKS called Azure Private Link, which allows you to connect to AKS securely and privately over the Microsoft Azure backbone network. In the past, connecting to AKS from an on-premises network or other virtual network required using a public IP address, which posed potential security… Continue reading
Difference between workload managed identity, Pod Managed Identity and AKS Managed Identity
Azure Kubernetes Service(AKS) offers several options for managing identities within Kubernetes clusters, including AKS Managed Identity, Pod Managed Identity, and Workload Managed Identity. Here’s a comparison of these three options: Key Features AKS Managed Identity Pod Managed Identity Workload Managed Identity Overview A built-in feature of AKS that allows you to assign an Azure AD… Continue reading
How is AKS workload identity different from AKS pod managed identity?
AKS workload identity and AKS pod managed identity both provide a way to manage access to Azure resources from within a Kubernetes cluster. However, there are some key differences between the two features. Scope AKS pod managed identity provides a managed identity for each individual pod within a Kubernetes cluster. This allows you to grant… Continue reading
What is different between Pod managed identity and AKS managed identity
Both Pod Managed Identity and AKS Managed Identity are identity management solutions provided by Azure, but they have some key differences. Pod Managed Identity Pod Managed Identity is an Azure feature that provides an identity for a single Kubernetes pod. It allows the pod to access Azure resources without the need for credentials such as… Continue reading
