Tips on how to Set up App Mesh on AWS EKS

You’ll be able to comply with the steps under to put in App Mesh on AWS EKS (Kubernetes).

Step 1 – Conditions

curl -o pre_upgrade_check.sh https://uncooked.githubusercontent.com/aws/eks-charts/grasp/steady/appmesh-controller/improve/pre_upgrade_check.sh
sh ./pre_upgrade_check.sh

Step 2 – Add Helm Repo

helm repo add eks https://aws.github.io/eks-charts

Step 3 – Add Customized Useful resource Definitions (CRDs)

kubectl apply -k "https://github.com/aws/eks-charts/steady/appmesh-controller/crds?ref=grasp"

Step 4 – Create a Namespace for App Mesh

kubectl create ns appmesh-system

Step 5 – Set Atmosphere Variables

You will have to set a few atmosphere variables to make issues simpler later.

export CLUSTER_NAME=cluster-name
export ACCOUNT_ID=111122223333
export AWS_REGION=eu-west-1

aws eks list-clusters will show you how to get the CLUSTER_NAME.

aws sts get-caller-identity will show you how to get the ACCOUNT_ID.

AWS_REGION must be the area the place your EKS cluster has been setup.

Step 6 – Add an IAM OIDC supplier

eksctl utils associate-iam-oidc-provider 
    --region=$AWS_REGION 
    --cluster $CLUSTER_NAME 
    --approve

Step 7 – Create an IAM Service Account

eksctl create iamserviceaccount 
    --cluster $CLUSTER_NAME 
    --namespace appmesh-system 
    --name appmesh-controller 
    --attach-policy-arn arn:aws:iam::aws:coverage/AWSCloudMapFullAccess,arn:aws:iam::aws:coverage/AWSAppMeshFullAccess,arn:aws:iam::aws:coverage/AWSXRayDaemonWriteAccess 
    --override-existing-serviceaccounts 
    --approve

Step 8 – Set up the App Mesh Controller utilizing Helm

helm improve -i appmesh-controller eks/appmesh-controller 
    --namespace appmesh-system 
    --set area=$AWS_REGION 
    --set serviceAccount.create=false 
    --set serviceAccount.title=appmesh-controller 
    --set log.stage=debug

Step 9 – Observe the App Mesh Deployment

kubectl get deployment appmesh-controller 
    -n appmesh-system 
    -o json  | jq -r ".spec.template.spec.containers[].picture"

Step 10 – Create a Fargate Profile within the EKS cluster

eksctl create fargateprofile --cluster $CLUSTER_NAME --name appmesh-system --namespace appmesh-system
