Select and deploy a Kubernetes application

From an AKS cluster

  1. In the Azure portal, navigate to your AKS cluster resource.

  2. From the service menu, under Settings, select Extensions + applications > Add.

  3. You can search for an offer or publisher directly by name, or you can browse all offers. To view Kubernetes application offers, select Containers under Categories.

  7. Once you've filled in all the required information, select Review + create > Create.

    It might take a few minutes for the application to deploy. You can monitor the deployment status from the Extensions + applications page.

Search in the Azure portal

  6. Once you've filled in all the required information, select Review + create > Create.

    It might take a few minutes for the application to deploy. You can monitor the deployment status from the Extensions + applications page.

Verify the deployment

  1. Navigate to the cluster where you recently installed the application.
  2. From the service menu, under Settings, select Extensions + applications.
  3. Verify that the extension is listed and the Provisioning State shows Succeeded.

Manage the offer lifecycle

For lifecycle management, a Kubernetes offer is represented as a cluster extension for AKS. For more information, see Cluster extensions for AKS. Purchasing an offer from Azure Marketplace creates a new instance of the extension on your AKS cluster.

  1. In the Azure portal, navigate to the cluster where you recently installed the application.
  2. From the service menu, under Settings, select Extensions + applications.
  3. Select an extension name to navigate to a properties view where you're able to disable autoupgrades, check the provisioning state, delete the extension instance, or modify configuration settings as needed.

Monitor billing and usage information

  1. In the Azure portal, navigate to your cluster's resource group.
  2. From the service menu, under Cost Management, select Cost analysis. Under Product, you can see a cost breakdown for the plan that you selected.

Remove an offer

You can delete a purchased plan for an Azure container offer by deleting the extension instance on the cluster.

  1. Navigate to the cluster where you recently installed the application.
  2. From the service menu, under Settings, select Extensions + applications.
  3. Select an application, then select Uninstall.
