Terraform module to provision an EKS cluster on AWS.


This project is part of our comprehensive "SweetOps" approach towards DevOps.

It's 100% Open Source and licensed under the APACHE2.

Introduction

The module provisions the following resources:

  • EKS cluster of master nodes that can be used together with the terraform-aws-eks-workers module to create a full-blown cluster
  • IAM Role to allow the cluster to access other AWS services
  • Security Group which is used by EKS workers to connect to the cluster and kubelets and pods to receive communication from the cluster control plane (see terraform-aws-eks-workers)
  • The module generates kubeconfig configuration to connect to the cluster using kubectl

Usage
