 As a managed Kubernetes service, Azure Stack Hub handles critical tasks such as health monitoring, and facilitates maintenance for you. The Azure Stack Hub team manages the image used for maintaining the clusters. The cluster administrator only needs to apply the updates as needed. The services come at no extra cost. AKS is free; you only pay to use the VMs (master and agent nodes) within your clusters. It's simpler to use than the [AKS engine](azure-stack-kubernetes-aks-engine-overview.md) since it removes some of the manual tasks required with the AKS engine.

 This article explains how to migrate existing workloads in the Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) preview on Azure Stack Hub to AKS engine, and summarizes AKS feature differences. The AKS preview is being deprecated in favor of extending support for AKS engine on Azure Stack Hub.
 
 [AKS engine](https://github.com/Azure/aks-engine) provides a command-line tool to bootstrap Kubernetes clusters on Azure and Azure Stack Hub. By using Azure Resource Manager, AKS engine helps you create and maintain clusters running on VMs, virtual networks, and other Azure infrastructure as a service (IaaS) resources in Azure Stack Hub. To learn more about AKS engine, see the [AKS engine overview](azure-stack-kubernetes-aks-engine-overview.md), and review the [AKS engine feature comparison](#compare-features-aks-engine-vs-aks-preview) in this article.
