CKA

Use the below to set and initialize your backend config variables terraform init -backend-config=backend.conf

For example

backend.conf

bucket = "bucket-name"
key = "object-name"
region = "eu-west-2"
dynamodb_table = "table-name"

Core Concepts

1. Lab-01: Deploy a Kubernetes Cluster on AWS EC2 and attach a Cilium CNI
2. Lab-02: Deploy a single pod to an EKS cluster
3. Lab-03: Deploy a single pod to an EKS cluster, and then scale the pod using a ReplicaSet for high availability
4. Lab-04: Deploy 2 Namespaces and set a Resource Quota in them
5. Lab-05: Deploy a Replicaset and expose it using a Nodeport Service
6. Lab-06: Deploy a Replicaset and expose it using a ClusterIP Service
