Azure AKS (changelog)

This release is rolling out to all regions

Important Service Updates

• K8s 1.16 introduces API deprecations which will impact user workloads as described in this AKS issue. When AKS supports this version user action is required to remove dependencies on the deprecated APIs to avoid disruption to workloads. Ensure you have taken this action prior to upgrading to K8s 1.16 when it is available in AKS.
• 1.16 will GA on the week of March 9th and you will no longer be able to create 1.13.x based clusters or nodepools.
