EKS-A Workshop

We will be deploying the Google Demo app to our EKS clusters.

Standard EKS deployment

Dependencies

kubectl
eksctl
[Git] (https://git-scm.com/downloads)
Credentials for access to AWS account

Cluster Creation

Create a cluster (this will take 15-20 min...). The PROJECT_NAME must be unique:

eksctl create cluster --name <PROJECT_NAME> --version 1.27 --nodes=2 --node-type=t2.medium

Cluster Creation Validation and Health

eksctl get cluster --name <CLUSTER_NAME>

eksctl get nodegroup --cluster <CLUSTER_NAME>

Stacks used to create cluster

aws cloudformation list-stacks

aws cloudformation describe-stacks —-stack-name <STACK NAME>

VPC and Subnets

aws eks describe-cluster —-region us-east-1 —-name <CLUSTER_NAME>

Enable Logging

CloudWatch logging will not be enabled for the cluster. We will enable logging review the logs.

eksctl utils update-cluster-logging —-enable-types=all —-region=us-east-1 —-cluster=<CLUSTER_NAME> —-approve

Deploy Application

Dowload the application:

git clone https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/microservices-demo.git

The download should create a microservices-demo directory with all of the code

Create the application:

kubectl apply -f ./microservices-demo/release/kubernetes-manifests.yaml

Wait for the pods to be ready.

kubectl get pods

After a few minutes, you should see the Pods in a Running state:

Access the web frontend in a browser using the frontend's external IP

   kubectl get service frontend-external | awk '{print $4}'

Visit http://EXTERNAL_IP in a web browser to access your instance of Online Boutique.

View a list of all the microservices running

kubectl get services

View the nodes that each microservice is running in

kubectl get pods -o wide

(Optional) Logging - can view in the console

Amazon EKS control plane logging provides audit and diagnostic logs directly from the Amazon EKS control plane to CloudWatch Logs in your account.

The following cluster control plane log types are available. Each log type corresponds to a component of the Kubernetes control plane:

Kubernetes API server component logs: Your cluster's API server is the control plane component that exposes the Kubernetes API.
Audit: Audit logs provide a record of the individual users, administrators, or system components that have affected your cluster.
Authenticator: Authenticator logs are unique to Amazon EKS. These logs represent the control plane component that Amazon EKS uses for Kubernetes Role Based Access Control.
Control Manager: The controller manager manages the core control loops that are shipped with Kubernetes.
Scheduler: The scheduler component manages when and where to run pods in your cluster.

Checking Logs

Describe the log group for the cluster:

aws logs describe-log-groups --log-group-name-prefix /aws/eks/<CLUSTER_NAME>/cluster

Describe the log streams for the cluster:

aws logs describe-log-streams --log-group-name /aws/eks/<CLUSTER_NAME>/cluster

Get the log events in the log streams on the cluster:

aws logs get-log-events --log-group-name /aws/eks/<CLUSTER_NAME>/cluster --log-stream-name <LOG_STREAM_NAME>

(Optional) Delete Cluster

eksctl delete cluster --name <PROJECT_ID>
