Deploying Kubernetes on AWS

If you will be installing Aizen on Amazon Web Services (AWS), follow these setup instructions:

• Set up Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Services (EKS). See https://aws.amazon.com/eks/getting-started/.

• Install Amazon Elastic Block Store (EBS), which provides block storage for EC2 instances in AWS. See https://aws.amazon.com/ebs/. Amazon EBS offers various volume types, including General Purpose (SSD), Provisioned IOPS (SSD), and Magnetic (HDD). You can dynamically provision and resize EBS volumes.

• To set up AWS Load Balancer Controller, EKS's load balancer, follow these instructions:

  • https://docs.aws.amazon.com/eks/latest/userguide/aws-load-balancer-controller.html

  • https://aws.amazon.com/premiumsupport/knowledge-center/eks-alb-ingress-controller-fargate/
