This repo provides Terraform templates for deploying a Kubernetes cluster against AWS using EKS

• Terraform
• AWS CLI
• Kubectl

Make sure environment variables AWS_PROFILE and AWS_DEFAULT_REGION point to the corresponding AWS credentials/region

  export AWS_PROFILE=sandbox 
  export AWS_DEFAULT_REGION=us-west-2

1. Review terraform/variables.tf and adjust as needed

2. Provision VPC and cluster

   	cd terraform
   	terraform init
   	terraform apply

3. Authenticate to Cluster

   aws eks update-kubeconfig --name sandbox-eks-cluster --region $AWS_DEFAULT_REGION
   

4. Register nodes to the cluster

   	terraform output config_map_aws_auth > config_map_aws_auth.yml
   	kubectl apply -f config_map_aws_auth.yml

5. Validate by checking the created cluster nodes (it might take a minute to show 'Ready' status)

   	kubectl get nodes
   

6. Provide access to other IAM users/roles that require it (see https://aws.amazon.com/premiumsupport/knowledge-center/amazon-eks-cluster-access/)

   	kubectl edit configmap aws-auth -n kube-system
   

   (IAM users should authenticate to the cluster after this step is completed)

   	aws eks --region $AWS_DEFAULT_REGION update-kubeconfig --name sandbox-eks-cluster
   

This template does not currently include an Ingress controller. One can be deployed, eg for Nginx, using

	kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubernetes/ingress-nginx/controller-0.32.0/deploy/static/provider/aws/deploy.yaml

	kubectl get all -n ingress-nginx 

Notice that this is deployed outside of Terraform, so it needs to be manually deleted before removing the cluster.

⚠ WARNING: You will delete your cluster with this steps.

If you want to destroy the cluster execute:

	terraform destroy
	

See airflow/README.md for information about how to install airflow in this cluster.

⚠ WARNING: Your cluster will be turned off if you follow this steps.

If you want to turn off the instances go to Amazon's web console -> EC2 -> Autoscaling group and edit the configuration, setting up 0 instances for 'Desired capacity' and 'Minimum capacity' fields.
