Hi Yahav, and anyone else who may be following along.

To be clear, there are two distinct options if you want to run your
applications across more than one availability zone:

   1. multi-zone clusters <http://kubernetes.io/docs/admin/multiple-zones/>
   - where you have a single kubernetes cluster, a single control plane for
   that cluster, and are limited to multiple availability zones within the
   same region of the same cloud provider.
   2. federated clusters
   <http://kubernetes.io/docs/user-guide/federation/federated-services/> -
   where you have multiple clusters, each with their own control plane, as
   well as an additional control plane for the entire federation.  In this
   case, the restrictions regarding same-region and same cloud provider
   mentioned above no longer apply.

We are in the process of improving the documentation to make the above
distinction clearer to everyone.  You are not the first one to have been
slightly confused by the two options.

Regards

Quinton
