Do Azure Kubernetes nodes share clock / NTP server?

7/10/2018

Do machines in Azure's Kubernetes service share the same NTP server(s) and, therefore, keep the same time? I'm looking for accuracy to the second or better (ms, etc.)

This is regarding AKS, but I know they have other Kubernetes offerings too.

For your issue, I read documents and find one that I think it's interesting and particular to you. Azure VM is based on Hyper-V and they synchronize time from the host where they are. You can get the details from this document: Accurate Time for Windows Server 2016.
