Public Preview: Application Gateway for Containers managed add-on + AKS Automatic

We previously announced the availability of Application Gateway for Containers and the Application Gateway for Containers AKS Add-on for Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS). At that time, one limitation was that Application Gateway for Containers could not be provisioned into an AKS Automatic cluster. Application Gateway for Containers can now be used with AKS Automatic through the Application Gateway for Containers AKS Add-on. With this update, customers using AKS Automatic can deploy Application Gateway for Containers by enabling the AKS Add-on, allowing Application Gateway for Containers to be managed and integrated as part of the AKS Automatic experience. This removes the need to manually provision or manage supporting infrastructure and aligns with the simplified operational model of AKS Automatic. This enhancement enables customers to: * Use Application Gateway for Containers as the managed ingress and load balancing solution for AKS Automatic clusters * Benefit from a fully managed, Azure-native experience through the AKS Add-on * Reduce operational overhead while adopting Gateway API–based application delivery You can get started by enabling the Application Gateway for Containers AKS Add-on on your AKS Automatic clusters.
