Amazon Web Services Terraform Experiments

Here we'll use aws-cli and a minimal complement of Terraform providers to

• Create an IAM user
• Provision cloud resources (like DNS)
• Create a simple EKS cluster
• Install additional Kubernetes infrastructure modules (like cert-manager, nginx-ingress, external-dns)
• Install a container registry
• Install cf-for-k8s

and much more.

The basics

• Install prerequisite software
• Setup an IAM user
• Setup DNS
• Provision cluster
• Install cert-manager
• Install nginx-ingress or Contour
• Install external-dns
• Install a container registry like Harbor or JCR
• Install cf-for-k8s

For additional exploration

• Install VMWare Tanzu Application Service for Kubernetes
• Create an S3 bucket
• Install Cloud Service Broker
• Install Stratos
• Install a continuous deployment engine like ArgoCD or Tekton
• Enable canary deployments with Flagger
• Integrate observability with a choice of Wavefront, EFK or Loki stacks
