Windows support for
Virtual Machines Node Pools is now available in Azure Kubernetes Services. With
Virtual Machines node pools, Azure Kubernetes Services directly manages the
provisioning and bootstrapping of every single node. When deploying a
workload onto Azure Kubernetes Services (AKS), each node pool typically can
only contain one virtual machine (VM) type or SKU. Virtual Machines node pools
allow the capability to add multiple VM SKUs of a similar family to a single
node pool. Virtual Machines node pools allow you to specify a family of SKUs
for a node pool without the need to maintain one node pool per SKU type,
reducing the node pool footprint.
This feature is currently in public preview.
