Amazon Elastic Container Service for Kubernetes (Amazon EKS) is a managed service that makes it easy for you to run Kubernetes on AWS without needing to stand up or maintain your own Kubernetes control plane.
-
Amazon EKS runs Kubernetes control plane instances across multiple Availability Zones to ensure high availability. Amazon EKS automatically detects and replaces unhealthy control plane instances, and it provides automated version upgrades and patching for them.
-
Amazon EKS is also integrated with many AWS services to provide scalability and security for your applications, including the following: • Elastic Load Balancing for load distribution • IAM for authentication • AmazonVPCforisolation
Building the AWS EKS from scratch by keeping all dependencies & setup execution inside a container. By building the image, the container will do the below tasks:
• Creating an AWS EKS service role
• Creating an AWS EKS Cluster VPC
• Install and Configure kubectl for Amazon EKS
• Creating an AWS EKS cluster
• Configure kubectl for Amazon EKS
• Launch and Configure Amazon EKS Worker Nodes
vars-eks-vpc.yaml
file defines your VPC network. You can change the CIDR on the file.
VpcBlock:
Type: String
Default: 10.16.0.0/16
Description: The CIDR range for the VPC.
Subnet01Block:
Type: String
Default: 10.16.1.0/24
Description: CidrBlock for subnet 01 within the VPC
Subnet02Block:
Type: String
Default: 10.16.2.0/24
Description: CidrBlock for subnet 02 within the VPC
Subnet03Block:
Type: String
Default: 10.16.3.0/24
Description: CidrBlock for subnet 03 within the VPC
cluster.sh
file is script to build the EKS cluster.
export region=us-east-1
export instance_type=t2.medium
export keyname=eks
export ami=ami-dea4d5a1
export cluster_name=eks-master
export node_name=eks-worker
Run the below command and grab a cup of coffee because it will take some time
Open the vars-eks-vpc.yaml
& cluster.sh
and update with your Variables. Then build the docker image.
Fill the AWS variables in the Makefile & type
make
git clone https://github.com/vishnudxb/docker-eks.git && cd docker-eks
docker build --build-arg AWS_ACCESS_KEY=<Put your access key> --build-arg AWS_SECRET_KEY=<put your secret key> --build-arg REGION=<Your AWS Region> vishnudxb/docker-eks
