aws-production-eks

Terraform script for production grade Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS) provisioning.

Getting Started

Terraform script that provision a private Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS) accessable only via a bastion host.

Sections

Prerequisites

VPC (virtual private cloud) with private and public subnets.

Sample VPC terraform Script

Usage

Default

module "production-eks" {
    source = "github.com/itninja-hue/aws-production-eks"
    vpc_id = "vpcXXXX"
    keypair-name = "ssh_production_keypair"
    private_subnets_ids = ["private_subnet_id1","private_subnet_id2"]
    public_subnets_ids = ["public_subnet_id1","public_subnet_id2"]
    bastion_ingress_cidr_block = ["cidr_block_1","cidr_block_2"]
}

All_params

module "production-eks" {
    source = "github.com/itninja-hue/aws-production-eks"
    region = "region_name"
    vpc_id = "vpcXXXX"
    eks_cluster-name = "production_cluster"
    keypair-name = "ssh_production_keypair"
    private_subnets_ids = ["private_subnet_id1","private_subnet_id2"]
    public_subnets_ids = ["public_subnet_id1","public_subnet_id2"]
    worker_nodes_disk_size = "200"
    worker_nodes_instance_types = ["t3a.large"]
    worker_nodes_scaling_desired_size = "3"
    worker_nodes_scaling_max_size = "5"
    worker_nodes_scaling_min_size = "3"
    bastion_ingress_cidr_block = ["cidr_block_1","cidr_block_2"]
}

Deployment

terraform init
terraform apply

Accessing_the_cluster

ssh to the bastion host.

Sample_VPC_Script

You can use this straight away implmentation of terraform-aws-modules/vpc/aws module.

provider "aws" {
  region = "INSERT REGION" //example eu-west-1
  version = "~> 2.47"
}
resource "aws_eip" "nat" {
  count = 3
  vpc = true
}

module "vpc" {
  source = "terraform-aws-modules/vpc/aws"
  name = "INSERT VPC NAME" //example production-vpc
  cidr = "VPC CIDR BLOCK" //example 10.120.0.0/16

  azs = "AVAILABILTY ZONES LIST" //example ["eu-west-1b", "eu-west-1a", "eu-west-1c"]
  private_subnets = "PRIVATE SUBNETS LIST" //example ["10.120.10.0/24","10.120.11.0/24","10.120.12.0/24"]
  private_subnet_tags = {
    "kubernetes.io/role/internal-elb" : "1"
  }
  public_subnets = "PUBLIC SUBNETS LIST" // example ["10.120.0.0/24","10.120.1.0/24","10.120.2.0/24"]
  public_subnet_tags = {
    "kubernetes.io/role/elb" : "1"
  }
  enable_nat_gateway = true
  single_nat_gateway  = false
  reuse_nat_ips       = true  
  external_nat_ip_ids = aws_eip.nat.*.id
  enable_dns_hostnames = true
  enable_dns_support   = true
  enable_s3_endpoint = true
tags = {
    "Terraform" : "true"
    "Environment" : "production"
    "kubernetes.io/cluster/production-eks" : "shared"
  }
}

All tags starting with kubernetes.io are mandatory for resource binding thus shouldn't be deleted

Post Deployment

Elastic_File_System

This script will deploy Eks with EBS block storage as default storage class. The following terraform script will deploy Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS) with multi availabilty zone mount targets (make sure to match the AZ with ones you deployed your worker nodes in).

resource "aws_security_group" "efs-mount-targets" {
  name = "efs-mount-targets"
  description = "efs mount targets security group"
  vpc_id = "VPC ID" //example vpcXXXX
  egress {
      from_port = 0
      to_port = 0
      protocol = "-1"
      cidr_blocks = ["0.0.0.0/0"]
  }
}

resource "aws_efs_file_system" "production-efs" {
  creation_token = "eks-efs"

  tags = {
    Name = "production-efs"
    Terraform = "true"
    Environment = "production"
  }
}
resource "aws_efs_mount_target" "eu-west-1c" {
  file_system_id = "${aws_efs_file_system.production-efs.id}"
  subnet_id      = "AZ 1 PRIVATE CIDR" // example 10.120.10.0/24
  security_groups = ["${aws_security_group.efs-mount-targets.id}"]
}
resource "aws_efs_mount_target" "eu-west-1a" {
  file_system_id = "${aws_efs_file_system.production-efs.id}"
  subnet_id      = "AZ 2 PRIVATE CIDR" //example 10.120.11.0/24
  security_groups = ["${aws_security_group.efs-mount-targets.id}"]
}
resource "aws_efs_mount_target" "eu-west-1b" {
  file_system_id = "${aws_efs_file_system.production-efs.id}"
  subnet_id      = "AZ 3 PRIVATE CIDR" //example 10.120.12.0/24
  security_groups = ["${aws_security_group.efs-mount-targets.id}"]
}

resource "aws_security_group_rule" "ingress-mount_targets-worker_nodes" {
  description = "Allow mount targets to recive connection from worker nodes"
  source_security_group_id = "WORKER NODES SECURITY GROUP ID" //example sg-XXXXXXXXXXX
  from_port = 2049
  protocol = "tcp"
  security_group_id = "${aws_security_group.efs-mount-targets.id}"
  to_port = 2049
  type ="ingress"
}
