Users cannot currently create a cluster on Microsoft's AKS (azure kubernetes service) from GitLab. This would streamline the cluster creation and connection to GitLab, which can be error prone when done manually.

Proposal

Follow the Terraform-based pattern we use for GKE and AWS. We can provide a Azure guide too using the corresponding Terraform provider.

1. Create the example project
   • optional: get interest from Azure to keep the project updated
2. Create the documentation
3. Integrate with the UI

What does success look like, and how can we measure that?

• Clicks from the UI to the docs page
• Visits the docs page
• Forks/imports of the provided example project
