Building an EKS Cluster with ALB Ingress Controller and External DNS using Terraform

This tutorial will guide you through the process of building an Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS) cluster using Terraform and deploying AWS ALB and External DNS. By the end of this tutorial, you will have a fully functional EKS cluster running in your AWS account and will be able to deploy applications using your own domain. alt text

Installation and Usage Example

Configure AWS Credentials

aws configure --profile acg
export AWS_PROFILE=acg
aws sts get-caller-identity 

or

export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=""
export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=""


module "eks" {
  source = "github.com/sahibgasimov/eks-terraform-stable//terraform?ref=main"
  #### EKS Cluster ####
  cluster_name    = "dev"
  cluster_version = "1.26"
  environment     = "dev"
  ##### ALB Ingress Controller and External DNS #####
  external_dns          = "6.20.3"
  alb_ingress           = "1.5.3"
  alb_ingress_image_tag = "v2.5.2"
  csi_driver = "v1.19.0-eksbuild.1"
  ##### Nodes Autoscaling desired instance size #####
  instance_types  = "t3.small"
  desired_size    = 2
  max_size        = 5
  min_size        = 2
  max_unavailable = 1
  ##### Route53 Domain #####
  region         = "us-east-1"
  domain         = "cmcloudlab1723.info"
  hosted_zone_id = "Z06905353M1B7BVE48CCA"
  ##### Networking #####
  vpc_cidr         = "10.0.0.0/16"
  private_subnet_1 = "10.0.0.0/19"
  private_subnet_2 = "10.0.32.0/19"

  public_subnet_2  = "10.0.96.0/19"
  public_subnet_3  = "10.0.160.0/19"
}
output "eks" {
  value = module.eks.eks
}

Deploy module

terraform init 
terraform apply

Create kubeconfig file

aws eks --region us-east-1 update-kubeconfig --name your_cluster_name
kubectl get nodes
kubectl get pods -n kube-system #Check if the controller is running.

Destroy

terraform destroy
