AKS Cluster Pipelines

Introduction

Collection of pipelines that automate the recreation of the AKS clusters used for continuous integration. In general, the pipelines do the following:

• Fetch required configuration from various sources (keyvault, az cli queries)
• destroy and recreate the existing AKS cluster
• configure RBAC roles
• install required applications using Helm, such as Service Catalog and Open Service Broker for Azure

The pipelines do NOT create the required network infrastructure, it must already be present.

AKS Cluster Pipelines

YAML Template Files

• recreate-aks-template.yml: This is used by the various YAML pipelines and performs the exact same functionality for all
• 'recreate-aks-template-test.yml: The same as recreate-aks-template.yml, but used by recreate-aks-test.yml` for testing new functionality and changes.

YAML Pipeline Files

The pipeline files are:

• recreate-aks-test.yml: recreates a test cluster in the Sandbox subscription. Useful for testing changes to the main recreate-aks-template.yml template.
• recreate-aks-sandbox.yml: recreates the cnp-aks-sandbox-cluster in the Sandbox CI environment.
• recreate-aks-nonprod.yml: recreates the cnp-aks-cluster in the nonprod/prod CI environment.

Pipelines

Each YAML pipeline file has a corresponding pipeline, which pretty much does what it says. Each one has a collection of variables that are environment-specific.

Triggers

The continous integration triggers on YAML push have been disabled. The pipelines are queued on demand.

OSBA (Open Service Broker for Azure) Pipelines

The files in osba create shared resources via OSBA.
