Eventually, I got to the modules in Terraform. Namely, I had to figure out how to transfer the values of the variables between two modules. So in this post, the most basic and simple examples of working with modules and their values && outputs. See more in the documentation – Modules. The Root module First,… Read More »
An application, cluster, or repository can be created In ArgoCD from its WebUI, CLI, or by writing a Kubernetes manifest that then can be passed to kubectl to create resources. For example, Applications are Kubernetes CustomResources and described in Kubernetes CRD applications.argoproj.io: [simterm] $ kubectl get crd applications.argoproj.io NAME CREATED AT applications.argoproj.io 2020-11-27T15:55:29Z [/simterm] And… Read More »
I have a CloudFormation stack with VPC Peerings, in that case, it’s a peering between VPC of a new Elastic Kubernetes Service cluster and VPC of the Prometheus monitoring stack. The EKS cluster’s stack and its whole automation creation were described in the AWS Elastic Kubernetes Service: a cluster creation automation, part 1 – CloudFormation… Read More »
In addition to the AWS Elastic Kubernetes Service: a cluster creation automation, part 1 – CloudFormation and AWS Elastic Kubernetes Service: a cluster creation automation, part 2 – Ansible, eksctl posts – now I’d like to pass a Parameter as a List with multiply values to a CloudForamtion stack. The idea is to get all… Read More »
The official documentation calls Helm as a “The package manager for Kubernetes“, but in fact, Helm is something bigger than just a package manager – it’s more an application controlling tool for their installation, managing, upgrading, configuration, etc. In this post, we will take an overview of Helm in general, its Charts, templates, variables, and… Read More »
The first part – AWS Elastic Kubernetes Service: a cluster creation automation, part 1 – CloudFormation. To remind the whole idea is to create an automation process to create an EKS cluster: Ansible uses the cloudformation module to create an infrastructure by using an Outputs of the CloudFormation stack created – Ansible from a template will… Read More »
The next task with our Kubernetes cluster is to set up its monitoring with Prometheus. This task is complicated by the fact, that there is the whole bunch of resources needs to be monitored: from the infrastructure side – ЕС2 WokerNodes instances, their CPU, memory, network, disks, etc key services of Kubernetes itself – its… Read More »
The task is: create automation to roll out an AWS Elastic Kubernetes Service cluster from scratch. Will use: Ansible: to automate CloudFormation stack creation and to execute eksctl with necessary parameters CloudFormation with NestedStacks: to create an infrastructure – VPC, subnets, SecurityGroups, IAM-roles, etc eksctl: to create a cluster itself using resources created by CloudFormation… Read More »
In addition to the AWS: create an Elastic Container Registry and Jenkins deploy job post – the next part, where we will create a new Jenkins job to deploy a Docker Compose file to run our Docker image. Docker Compose file will be updated by an Ansible role called docker-deploy, which will set the desired… Read More »
We have a standard LEMP setup NGINX, PHP-FPM. Application – Yii-framework, deployed from Jenkins using Ansible role with the synchronize module on backend hosts in a /data/projects/prjectname/frontend/web, directory which is set as a root for an NGINX virtual host. The task is to have the ability to deploy the same application on the same backend… Read More »
