Welcome to 'AWS EKS Cluster Creation: A Hands-On Guide,' your comprehensive pathway to mastering Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS). In today's cloud-native landscape, Kubernetes has become the industry standard for container orchestration, and AWS EKS is the premier managed service for running Kubernetes at scale. This course is meticulously designed to take you from foundational concepts to practical, hands-on deployment. You will start by understanding the core architecture of EKS, including the managed control plane, worker nodes, and the shared responsibility model. From there, we will guide you through setting up your local environment with essential tools like AWS CLI, eksctl, and kubectl. You will learn how to navigate IAM roles and VPC requirements to ensure a secure and robust foundation. The core of the course focuses on the practical steps of creating, managing, and connecting to your EKS cluster using eksctl. You will explore compute capacity management, comparing Amazon EC2 instances with AWS Fargate for your worker nodes. Finally, you will deploy your first application using Kubernetes YAML configurations and learn the critical steps for safely tearing down your environment to prevent unexpected AWS billing charges. Whether you are a DevOps engineer, a cloud architect, or a developer looking to expand your cloud-native skills, this course provides the practical knowledge you need to confidently deploy and manage Kubernetes clusters on AWS.

            <p>Modern cloud-native application development relies heavily on container orchestration, and Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS) stands as a premier solution for running production-grade Kubernetes workloads at scale. By offloading the complexities of managing the Kubernetes control plane to AWS, organizations can focus on deploying applications rather than maintaining underlying infrastructure. This course provides a comprehensive, hands-on journey through the entire lifecycle of an EKS cluster. Learners will begin by exploring EKS architecture, understanding the shared responsibility model, and configuring their local environments with essential command-line tools such as the AWS CLI, <code>eksctl</code>, and <code>kubectl</code>. Additionally, the curriculum covers the foundational Identity and Access Management (IAM) roles and Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) networking requirements necessary to establish a secure and robust cloud environment.</p>

<p>Moving beyond theoretical concepts, this guide transitions into active deployment and cluster management. You will learn how to leverage <code>eksctl</code> to automate cluster provisioning via AWS CloudFormation, establish secure connections using <code>kubeconfig</code>, and manage compute capacity through managed node groups utilizing both Amazon EC2 and AWS Fargate. To solidify these skills, the course demonstrates how to deploy a live application using Kubernetes YAML configurations and verify its operational status. Finally, because cost management is critical in cloud environments, the training concludes with best practices for safely decommissioning and cleaning up all provisioned AWS resources. Through interactive modules and targeted quizzes, this course equips you with the practical skills required to confidently deploy, manage, and tear down EKS clusters in real-world scenarios.</p>
