Install Kubernetes on AWS
Quick Start the Datalayer Science Platform on AWS in 10 minutes.
Check the requirements to setup your local environment.
Check that you understand and have the following requirements.
- An AWS account with valid credentials.
- The latest Kuber binary release.
AWS Credentials
Setup your AWS environment with the needed AWS credentials via environment variables.
In your ~/.bashrc file.
# Define your valid AWS Credentials.
export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=<your-aws-key-id>
export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=<your-aws-key-secret>
If you prefer, you can persist those credentials in your home folder.
# ~/.aws/credentials
[kuber]
aws_access_key_id=<your-aws-key-id>
aws_secret_access_key=<your-aws-key-secret>
# ~/.aws/config
[kuber]
region=us-west-2
Create the K8S Cluster
# Run the following.
kuber kcreate dla1 -p aws -z us-west-2 && \ # eu-central-1 also supported.
kuber kapply dla1 -v 4
# Check the cluster is running.
watch kubectl get nodes && \
watch kubectl get pods --all-namespaces && \
kubectl proxy
This will give the list of nodes and then the list pods (there will be DNS, Calico as the Tiller pods for Helm).
