Deploying a Kubernetes Cluster Using Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service
In this lab, we will be creating a Kubernetes cluster using the Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS). We will create the cluster through the Cloud Shell! You will learn how to easily create a cluster with just a few commands. Understanding how to create your cluster through the command line will give you the advantage of having granular control over your cluster and understanding exactly what's going on under the hood. For this lab, you should have a basic understanding of Kubernetes. This way, you have the basic concepts to understand what we will be achieving in this lab!
