What Will I Learn?

• how to setup K8s dashboard with RBAC
• how to monitor K8s cluster and apps using Prometheus and Grafana
• how to configure SSL Termination at AWS ELB created by ingress controller using k8s service YAML
• how to authenticate and authorize AWS IAM users to AWS EKS cluster using aws-iam-authenticator, aws-auth ConfigMap, and RBAC (Role Based Access Control) aka ClusterRoleBinding
• how to authorize Pods to AWS resources by creating pod-level IAM permission using IRSA (IAM Role for Service Account)
• how to scale EKS worker nodes automatically using CA (Cluster Autoscaler using IRSA) and how to stress test it
• how to scale pods automatically using HPA (horizontal pod autoscaler) and how to stress test it
• why you shouldn't use eksctl managed worker nodes in production
• why you should be careful when using EKS's default AWS-VPC-CNI plugin, because Pod IP pool gets exhausted based on EC2 instance type

Requirements

• you have decent knowledge of AWS (EC2, VPC, subnet, load balancer, IAM, etc)
• you have learned Kubernetes fundamentals (pod, service, deployment, ingress, configmap, role, etc)
• you have development experience in Kubernetes YAML resources

Target audience

• You want to learn how to use managed Kubernetes cluster on AWS EKS
• You feel overwhelmed and don't know where to start with AWS EKS
• You want to know production-ready AWS EKS best Practices such as SSL Termination at AWS ELB, RBAC (Role Based Access Control), IRSA (IAM Role for Service Account), CA (Cluster Autoscaler using IRSA)
• You want to be able to configure SSL for AWS ELB using K8s ingress controller
• You want to be able to give right permissions to AWS IAM users in K8s cluster using ClusterRoleBinding (RBAC: Role Based Access Control)
• You don't know how pod-level AWS IAM authentication (IRSA: IAM Role for Service Account) works
• You want to learn how to monitor K8s apps using Prometheus and Grafana
