Hi @Madanala, Jayashree

Thanks for using Q & A forum.

Yes, you can use AKS on-prem using Azure stack HCI.

Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) on Azure Stack HCI and Windows Server is an on-premises Kubernetes implementation of AKS. AKS simplifies the process of setting up Kubernetes on Azure Stack HCI and Windows Server 2019/2022 Datacenter

Here's some of the functionality AKS provides on Azure Stack HCI:

• Deploy containerized apps at scale to Kubernetes clusters running across the Azure Stack HCI and Windows Server cluster.
• Deploy and manage both Linux and Windows-based containerized apps.
• Scale up or down by adding or removing nodes to the Kubernetes cluster.
• Manage storage and networking on your Kubernetes cluster.
• Provide automatic updates for your Kubernetes deployment.
• Keep up-to-date with the latest available Kubernetes versions.
• Use the popular Azure services through Azure Arc for Kubernetes.
