This starter guide provides a quick start for running Pinot on Microsoft Azure

This document provides the basic instruction to set up a Kubernetes Cluster on Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS)​
1. Tooling Installation
1.1 Install Kubectl
Please follow this link (https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/tools/install-kubectl) to install kubectl.
For Mac User
brew install kubernetes-cli
Please check kubectl version after installation.

For Mac User
brew update && brew install azure-cli
2. (Optional) Login to your Azure account
Below script will open default browser to sign-in to your Azure Account.
az login
3. (Optional) Create a Resource Group
Below script will create a resource group in location eastus.
AKS_RESOURCE_GROUP=pinot-demo
AKS_RESOURCE_GROUP_LOCATION=eastus
az group create --name ${AKS_RESOURCE_GROUP} \
                --location ${AKS_RESOURCE_GROUP_LOCATION}
4. (Optional) Create a Kubernetes cluster(AKS) in Azure 
Below script will create a 3 nodes cluster named pinot-quickstart for demo purposes.
Please modify the parameters in the example command below:
AKS_RESOURCE_GROUP=pinot-demo
AKS_CLUSTER_NAME=pinot-quickstart
az aks create --resource-group ${AKS_RESOURCE_GROUP} \
              --name ${AKS_CLUSTER_NAME} \
              --node-count 3
Once the command is succeed, it's ready to be used.
5. Connect to an existing cluster
Simply run below command to get the credential for the cluster pinot-quickstart that you just created or your existing cluster. 
AKS_RESOURCE_GROUP=pinot-demo
AKS_CLUSTER_NAME=pinot-quickstart
az aks get-credentials --resource-group ${AKS_RESOURCE_GROUP} \
                       --name ${AKS_CLUSTER_NAME}
To verify the connection, you can run:
kubectl get nodes
6. Pinot Quickstart
Please follow this Kubernetes QuickStart to deploy your Pinot Demo.
7. Delete a Kubernetes Cluster
AKS_RESOURCE_GROUP=pinot-demo
AKS_CLUSTER_NAME=pinot-quickstart
az aks delete --resource-group ${AKS_RESOURCE_GROUP} \
              --name ${AKS_CLUSTER_NAME}
