Description

Azure Kubernetes Fleet Manager now supports DNS-based public load balancing, delivered via a Kubernetes-native integration with Azure Traffic Manager. Kubernetes services placed on multiple clusters in a fleet can be included in a TrafficManagerBackend which is exposed via a public load balanced endpoint defined in a TrafficManagerProfile. An Azure Traffic Manager weighted profile is used to route traffic across clusters, with configurable health checks allowing automatic control over when unhealthy clusters stop receiving requests.
