To deploy Kubernetes on Azure uncomment the cloud_provider option in group_vars/all.yml and set it to 'azure'.

All your instances are required to run in a resource group and a routing table has to be attached to the subnet your instances are in.

Not all features are supported yet though, for a list of the current status have a look here
