Cloud Cluster Connector

Overview

Connect to cloud Kubernetes clusters:

• •Azure AKS: az aks get-credentials --resource-group ... --name ...
• •Google GKE: gcloud container clusters get-credentials ...
• •Oracle OKE: oci ce cluster create-kubeconfig ...
• •Switch context: kubectl config use-context ...
• •Verify: kubectl get nodes
• •Ask before switching: "Switch to [cloud] cluster?"

Pre-execution

Before connecting, verify: "Switch to [cloud] cluster?"

Post-execution

Validate connection with kubectl get nodes command

Implementation Guidelines

1. Azure AKS Connection

• •Use az aks get-credentials command to connect to AKS cluster
• •Specify resource group and cluster name
• •Verify credentials are stored in kubeconfig
• •Check cluster access permissions

2. Google GKE Connection

• •Use gcloud container clusters get-credentials command
• •Specify cluster name, zone, and project
• •Verify credentials are properly configured
• •Test access to GKE cluster

3. Oracle OKE Connection

• •Use oci ce cluster create-kubeconfig command
• •Specify cluster OCID and output location
• •Verify kubeconfig is properly formatted
• •Test connectivity to OKE cluster

4. Context Management

• •Switch to appropriate context with kubectl config use-context
• •Verify current context with kubectl config current-context
• •Save original context before switching if needed
• •Manage multiple contexts efficiently

5. Connection Validation

• •Run kubectl get nodes to verify cluster connectivity
• •Check node status and readiness
• •Verify cluster capacity and resources
• •Confirm access permissions are sufficient

6. Safety Checks

• •Always ask for confirmation before switching contexts
• •Warn about potential impacts of context switching
• •Verify cluster stability before performing operations
• •Document current context state before and after switching
