    Stands up an Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) cluster and a MongoDB-flavored instance of Azure Cosmos DB. On top of the AKS cluster, we also deploy a Helm Chart with a simple Node.js TODO app bitnami/node, swapping out the usual in-cluster MongoDB instance with our managed Cosmos DB instance.

    Prerequisites

    Running the Example

    In this example we will provision a Kubernetes cluster running a public Apache web server, verify we can access it, and clean up when done.

    1. Get the code:

      $ git clone git@github.com:pulumi/examples.git
      $ cd examples/azure-cs-aks-cosmos-helm
      
    2. Create a new stack, which is an isolated deployment target for this example:

      $ pulumi stack init
      
    3. Set the required configuration variables for this program:

      $ pulumi config set azure-native:location westus2
      
    4. Deploy everything with the pulumi up command. This provisions all the Azure resources necessary, including an Active Directory service principal, AKS cluster, and then deploys the Apache Helm Chart, all in a single gesture (takes 5-10 min):

      $ pulumi up
      
           Type                                                          Name                          Status      Info

      Outputs:
          Endpoint: "http://20.73.205.163"
      
    5. Now your database, your cluster, and application are ready. An output variable will be printed to provide the application endpoint.

      $ curl $(pulumi stack output Endpoint)
      <!doctype html>
      
      <!-- ASSIGN OUR ANGULAR MODULE -->
      <html ng-app="scotchTodo">
      <head>
          <!-- META -->
          <meta charset="utf-8">
          <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1"><!-- Optimize mobile viewport -->
      
          <title>Node/Angular Todo App</title>
      ...
      
    6. Once you are done, you can destroy all of the resources, and the stack:

      $ pulumi destroy
      $ pulumi stack rm
      $ rm kubeconfig.yaml
