Docs: Need Install Guide For AWS EKS

Created on 24 Sep 2018 · 10Comments · Source: knative/docs

There is no install Guide for AWS EKS. I would like to assess Knative for our Serverless needs if it is supported on EKS.

@ahmetb I updated my comment. You don't have to set
global.configValidation=false & sidecarInjectorWebhook.enabled=false. The Istio install was also seamless. The AWS team has done a great job with updating EKS to work well with Istio. My team had tried this about two months ago with no success so it was great to have it work. Please let me know if I can help with documentation. I would like to help.

I would expect https://github.com/knative/docs/blob/master/install/Knative-with-any-k8s.md to work, but I have no sense for the readiness of EKS for this. Mark is this something you can try out?

Ye, I think this is mostly about validation. Ahmet, can you help on this?

I don't have any EKS experience, but I'll take a look to see if we can outsource to the community who knows about EKS way more than we do.

I would be interested in this and may have some time in the next few weeks to give it a try. I will post back here with any updates.

Thanks all for signing up to do this, I'll let you decide who has more time or experience to work on it. Feel free to refer to existing docs for other services for styling of the guide. Also feel free to request code review from each other. 😉

I used this from the docs and it all worked on EKS as of today. I also deployed the helloworld-go service and was able to query it. I hope this helps.

Procedure:

eksctl create cluster
After the EKS cluster it was up I used this. I also deployed the helloworld-go service and was able to query it. I hope this helps.

Issues encountered:

Elasticsearch doesn't have a Logstash index pre-configured.

@fadeojo we need some docs explaining how to create a EKS master and provision some nodes (using eksctl?) so the guide takes you from no cluster to a cluster with nodes and Knative.
