Step-01: Create AWS Classic Load Balancer Kubernetes Manifest & Deploy¶

04-ClassicLoadBalancer.yml

apiVersion: v1
kind: Service
metadata:
  name: clb-usermgmt-restapp
  labels:
    app: usermgmt-restapp
spec:
  type: LoadBalancer  # Regular k8s Service manifest with type as LoadBalancer
  selector:
    app: usermgmt-restapp     
  ports:
  - port: 80
    targetPort: 8095

Deploy all Manifest

# Deploy all manifests
kubectl apply -f kube-manifests/

# List Services (Verify newly created CLB Service)
kubectl get svc

# Verify Pods
kubectl get pods

AWS EKS - Elastic Kubernetes Service - Masterclass¶

Step-02: Verify the deployment¶

Verify if new CLB got created
Go to Services -> EC2 -> Load Balancing -> Load Balancers
- CLB should be created
- Copy DNS Name (Example: a85ae6e4030aa4513bd200f08f1eb9cc-7f13b3acc1bcaaa2.elb.us-east-1.amazonaws.com)
Go to Services -> EC2 -> Load Balancing -> Target Groups
- Verify the health status, we should see active.

Access Application

# Access Application
http://<CLB-DNS-NAME>/usermgmt/health-status

Step-03: Clean Up¶

# Delete all Objects created
kubectl delete -f kube-manifests/

# Verify current Kubernetes Objects
kubectl get all
