Step 1: Setting Up Your AWS Environment

1.1 Install AWS CLI

First, you need the AWS CLI installed on your machine. If you haven’t installed it yet, you can do so by following the instructions here.

 curl -fsSL https://awscli.amazonaws.com/v2/install.sh | bash

1.2 Configure AWS CLI

After installing, configure the AWS CLI with your credentials:

aws configure

You’ll be prompted to enter your AWS Access Key ID, Secret Access Key, region, and output format.

1.3 Install kubectl

Next, you need to install kubectl, the Kubernetes command-line tool. You can find installation instructions here.

1.4 Install eksctl

Finally, install eksctl, a simple CLI tool for creating and managing EKS clusters. Instructions can be found here.

Step 2: Create an EKS Cluster

2.1 Create a Cluster

Use eksctl to create a new EKS cluster. This command creates a cluster named simple-cluster with two nodes:

eksctl create cluster --name simple-cluster --region us-west-2 --nodes 2

This process will take a few minutes. Once completed, your EKS cluster will be up and running

2.2 Configure kubectl

To enable kubectl to interact with your new EKS cluster, you need to update the kubeconfig file:

aws eks --region us-west-2 update-kubeconfig --name simple-cluster

Step 3: Set Up IAM Roles for Your Application
