Create Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service Cluster

This page provides comprehensive steps to set up and manage your Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service clustered cache environment through NCache Management Centre and Windows PowerShell.

Kubernetes Service: Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service Prerequisites

Before you create your actual Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service cluster, you need to make sure you have the basic requirements ready. These requirements include an authenticated AWS account that has administrative privileges to create and manage an EKS cluster. Follow the steps mentioned in Amazon's documentation on Prerequisites of Getting Started with AWS Console to get your cluster ready with the required prerequisites.

There are some important notions here that you need to take under consideration. They are:

  • You need to install kubectl command-line utility to communicate with the EKS cluster API server.
  • You need to install the latest Amazon Web Services CLI to manage your EKS cluster from your client machine.

Create Amazon EKS Cluster

Once you have the prerequisites in place, you can create your cluster inside Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service.

After your EKS cluster is up and running, you can start setting up the resources required to deploy and access NCache servers and clients inside your EKS cluster. See next chapter on Create NCache Resources.
