Install Tools

Prerequisites

Before you can deploy Hydrolix in Microsoft Managed Kubernetes Service (AKS), you'll need some supporting tools.

Cloud Infrastructure Tools

Hydrolix AKS uses Kubernetes. You can manage Kubernetes with the kubectl CLI tool.

This guide uses the Azure CLI to manage AKS resources.

Check if kubectl is installed with the following command:

which kubectl

You should see output similar to /opt/homebrew/bin/kubectl. If this command outputs kubectl not found, you should install kubectl.

Check if az, the Azure command-line tool, is installed with the following command:

which az

You should see output similar to /opt/homebrew/bin/az. If this command outputs az not found, you should install az.
