Amazon Web Services (EKS)

Infra App connects automatically to most clusters. If running kubectl works without any modifications or custom scripts, then Infra App will also work out of the box.
Prerequisites
Create an EKS cluster​
Download and setup the AWS CLI (preferably version 2)
​Configure the AWS CLI with the credentials AWS user that has access to the cluster
Generating a config file
​Create a config file entry using the aws CLI. For example:
1
aws eks --region <region-code> update-kubeconfig --name <cluster_name>

You're done! Infra App should automatically switch to your cluster. You can switch to it at any time via the cluster dropdown:
Installing Metrics Server
AWS EKS clusters don't include metrics server by default, so real-time CPU & Memory usage metrics won't show out of the box with Infra App.
Follow the official guide on the AWS docs site to install metrics server on your cluster.
Usage with custom profiles
In order to use a custom AWS profile to connect to your cluster, you'll need to edit your Kubernetes config file. This file is usually found in:
~/.kube/config on macOS and Linux
C:\Users\<your user>\.kube\config on Windows
Open this file and edit the relevant user object in the users: section. add an AWS_PROFILE environment variable .

users:

- name: arn:aws:eks:us-east-1:00919287195771:cluster/example-cluster

      command: aws

      # Add these lines to your KubeConfig

      env:

      - name: AWS_PROFILE

        value: <your profile>

Usage with aws-iam-authenticator
Older EKS clusters may use aws-iam-authenticator to generate tokens. If your cluster uses this make sure it's installed before using Infra App.
Usage with aws-okta
Usage with aws-okta is not supported yet, but we are working on it.
Usage with aws-vault
Usage with aws-vault is not supported yet, but we are working on it.
