Well they've gotten kubernetes running on azure.

  Yes you can run Azure Container Service using Kubernetes. When we migrated to Azure, we went with this and it worked reasonably well. However, they're using Ubuntu as their base OS, which we weren't the biggest fans of. Instead, we switched to running normal VMs using CoreOS and running Kubernetes on top of that. Same features and stability, but with the auto-update benefits of CoreOS.

    Out of curiosity, why'd you choose Azure over GKE?
    • HorizonXP 10y ago
      Cold hard cash. Our Azure credits have a longer expiry date.

        Makes sense. Any regrets?

          Basing on my experience there will be a migration to GCE when credits run out and you total the difference in costs. Azure is fine, but can't compete on price. (We migrated from AZ to GCE & K8S)
          • HorizonXP 10y ago
            Probably. But first have to build the business up so we can afford paying server costs before we can start worrying about Azure vs. GCE.

    CoreOS has also introduced preview support for Azure in Tectonic[1][2].

      We literally e-mailed you asking for this last month. Fantastic.
