[@nds8780]

Superb tutorial. You're a godsend! Thanks!

[@AntonPutra]

thank you!!

[@JohnVold]

Great start, thanks!

[@AntonPutra]

thank you!

[@omega1962]

Excellent videos on EKS concepts. Can you also please add observability on EKS like sending application logs to ELK or Opensearch and Cloudwatch?

[@AntonPutra]

Thank you! Probably at some point, yes, but it's very specific to your deployments.

[@XenoZeduX]

Would like to see Pulumi content in the future

[@AntonPutra]

ok will do as well as sdk

[@ВладФоменко-р4е]

Thank you!

[@AntonPutra]

🙏

[@shamstabrez2986]

do cover each and every topic of eks

[@AntonPutra]

Yes, will do. Can you suggest any additional topics?

[@agonzalezo]

Great video, thanks. What do you think about creating all subnets using the terraform “count” property instead of creating each separately ? I mean define 1 resource then it will become 4 subnets

[@AntonPutra]

Don't use count, use map instead and for each in terraform. Count is mostly used as feature flag (0 = disable, 1 = enable)

[@solaris244]

Thank's for your job. Could you add to the your Playlist the topic about choosing and manage CNI (subnets, CIDR, limitations) for AWS EKS?

[@AntonPutra]

Will do, I’ll also include Cilium Service Mesh sidecar less mesh

[@arunreddy1436]

That would be great Sir

What software are you using for these cool animation at 0:26 ?

[@AntonPutra]

i use adobe suite

[@AHMEDSAIFAN-oj1nd]

Hi Anton , i really appreciate your efforts , you said some may recommend creating multiple NAT gateway in different availability zones ...etc and you didn't find it useful , then how the avail zone's private subnet will initiate outbound traffic to the Internet "without creating NAT gateway" ?!

[@AntonPutra]

Well, you would still have a NAT gateway as a default route in all your private subnets, even if they are located in different availability zones. It's just that you would have a single NAT. Some recommend creating a NAT in each AZ to achieve high availability. it doesn't mean that you need a NAT in each AZ to initiate outbound traffic to the Internet.

[@zygote846]

Great vid but why not use the community modules?.Is there a specific reason to choose resources over modules?.

[@AntonPutra]

This playlist is for someone who wants to learn EKS. If you have a good understanding of EKS and how it works, you can use modules. However, I personally would create my own modules because I don't want to depend on other people's timelines. For example, the open-source eks module still uses the EKS auth configmap for adding new users.

[@zygote846]

@@AntonPutra exactly, I just noticed this yesterday but in version 20 it seems deprecated and starting 21.0 it will be completely removed.Upgrading these modules once in a while is also challenge but given the benefits I have opted to go with eks module as it has good support and its well maintained

[@AntonPutra]

@@zygote846 There is nothing wrong with using modules. As I mentioned, this playlist is for someone who wants to know how EKS works and be able to debug in the future if something breaks.

[@xBlackMambaWT]

best!

[@AntonPutra]

thank you!

[@xBlackMambaWT]

I thank you too for clear explanation. All the best!

[@MatthewKennedyUK]

If you get chance, could you let me know more about the owned vs shared on the subnet tags please? Or link me to some information. Many thanks.

[@AntonPutra]

sure, owned if it is used only by EKS, shared if you share that subnet with let's say other EKS clusters or VMs

[@MatthewKennedyUK]

@@AntonPutra That makes sense.

[@123sultans]

Can you share GitHub repo?

[@AntonPutra]

sure, it's always under the video - github.com/antonputra/tutorials/tree/main/lessons/195

[@ManiBalajiC]

I have problem with using terraform with For_each , i used range(var.mincount.var.maxcount) to generate values for creating like 10 instances , if i delete it again run terraform apply the range is calculated and creates a new one.. Even if i give the keys for 10 instances like one,two..ten. it still recreates if i delete a instance and run again. anything to overcome this

[@Kk-rl7nv]

Similar issue

[@ManiBalajiC]

@@Kk-rl7nv Hope my man @AntonPutra gives some us answer to this....

[@AntonPutra]

Sure, please share runnable terraform example as a github gist that I can run myself and I'll help you
