Introduction
For the last couple of days, I have been working on a new use case installing RKE2 clusters powered with Cilium on Azure Cloud. The requirement at hand was to use a Rancher instance and from there start deploying RKE2 clusters. After going through the official Rancher documentation, I have noticed that the instructions provided to pre-configure Azure Cloud are outdated.
In today's blog post, we will cover all the required steps taken to configure the Azure cloud-free credits to deploy RKE2 clusters with Cilium in that environment. Additionally, we will cover any limitations that come with the free credit concept.
