As the Kubernetes ecosystem grows and evolves, the need for robust data protection and streamlined management in hybrid and edge environments has never been greater. Microsoft’s Azure Local platform has become a critical solution for deploying and managing Kubernetes, and in particular Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS), in these environments.

As the Kubernetes landscape continues to evolve, there is often the need to adapt to newer, more robust distributions. SUSE has announced the end of life of RKE (Rancher Kubernetes Engine) in favor of RKE2, a Kubernetes distribution designed with enhanced security, resilience, and scalability. For organizations running workloads on RKE, this shift marks an important milestone—but it also raises questions about how to migrate workloads safely and efficiently.
