Getting Started

What is Kubernetes?

Kubernetes is a portable, extensible, open-source platform for managing containerized workloads and services, that facilitates both declarative configuration and automation. It has a large, rapidly growing ecosystem. Kubernetes services, support, and tools are widely available.

What is Amazon EKS?

Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS) is a managed service that makes it easy for you to run Kubernetes on AWS without needing to stand up or maintain your own Kubernetes control plane. Kubernetes is an open-source system for automating the deployment, scaling, and management of containerized applications.

What is ELK?

So, what is the ELK Stack? "ELK" is the acronym for three open source projects: Elasticsearch, Logstash, and Kibana. Elasticsearch is a search and analytics engine. Logstash is a server‑side data processing pipeline that ingests data from multiple sources simultaneously, transforms it, and then sends it to a "stash" like Elasticsearch. Kibana lets users visualize data with charts and graphs in Elasticsearch.

Prerequisites

• Install the AWS CLI
• Configure your AWS CLI credentials
• Install eksctl
• Create your Amazon EKS cluster and worker nodes

Installing

When your cluster is ready, test that your kubectl configuration is correct.

kubectl get svc

Apply Kubernetes Deployment which provides declarative updates for Pods and ReplicaSets.

kubectl apply -f testtask-deployment.yml

Apply Kubernetes Service(LoadBalancer) which expose an application running on a set of Pods as a network service.

kubectl apply -f testtask-service.yml

Check the Deployments, Pods and Services are running.

kubectl get deployments,pods,services

Monitoring

To deploy Filebeat and Metricbeat to Kubernetes, run:

kubectl create -f filebeat-kubernetes.yml
kubectl create -f metricbeat-kubernetes.yml

To Check status, runs:

kubectl --namespace=kube-system get ds/filebeat
kubectl --namespace=kube-system  get ds/metricbeat
kubectl --namespace=kube-system  get deploy/metricbeat
