• Checkout this repo
• ./eks cluster up # Takes ~15min
• kubectl apply -f nginx.yaml # Deploy an example Nginx pod
• export KUBECONFIG=~/.kube/eksconfig
• kubectl get pods # Check if the Nginx pod is running
• kubectl get svc -o wide # Locate the service URL for Nginx
• Copy the Nginx URL from previous step and launch the Nginx welcome page via port 8000
  • URL may look like http://a2ec4e6b66a2411e883240aa8289a10c-778396272.us-west-2.elb.amazonaws.com:8000/

• kubectl delete -f nginx.yaml # Delete Nginx pod if deployed based on the sample
