AKS + Gitlab CI — A Short Guide to Integration
How to create an AKS cluster using Azure CLI and integrate it on Gitlab CI
Hello all, for who is first arriving on my medium articles, I am sometimes writing some hands on tutorials on software development field. I also have a full Express tutorial which can be found here.
In this article, I am trying to resume an initial approach to create a Kubernetes cluster in Azure with azure cli, then integrating it into Gitlab CI.
I am expecting a minimum knowledge about what is Kubernetes and basic usages, as well as a basic understanding on Azure services, Docker and Gitlab, then we can avoid a lot of content and go straight to the point: how to configure it fast.
For this project I will also be simulating an ExpressJS project but since I currently cannot maintain the Kubernetes on at azure, I won’t be adding a project neither a link that works for the public readers. Hope you guys can understand it.

If you are lost on resource group, please add one following their…
