Techie in love with technology operations and infrastructure. I help customer design, deploy, operate and optimize containerized solution on AWS. Kubernetes enthusiast! Thoughts are my own.
Looks interesting. How many sessions have you done before this one? Not sure if joining if you are 2+ sessions deep on the topic already.

I've had good experiences so far. I've used it to find people to help put up paintings, TV mounts, etc. I haven't been dissapointed.

Circular dependencies in CDK. I'm yet to experience those in Pulumi.

Nice! I plan on writing about it as well. I might even write about circular dependencies as well. Let me know if you want to collab :)

Yes. If I'd operationalize it. I'd choose a proven and battle tested solution like EKS blueprints or the Terraform Karpenter module or EKS Auto mode. Trying to deploy it from scratch is for my own learning. 🥵

I love CDK, and I have deployed many EKS clusters with it. This time around trying to deploy Karpenter beat me. Not even Amazon Q and ChatGPT have been able to help. Skills issue maybe?! 🤦 😂

I think Pulumi is easier to reason with because with #Kubernetes provider you can better control the orchestration flow of the resources being deployed. 🤔

I need a break. I'll then try to recreate it in #Pulumi. I like CDK because I can leave my cluster endpoint private and use custom resources to configure the cluster without having to poke holes in the firewall.

I found a great Construct written in TS that I tried to follow. I tried deciphering the Karpenter installation documentation, but when I saw step 1) deploy the CF stack and step 2) run this eksctl command...I knew I was cooked.

I know. Still that's unimaginably far 🤯

I don't know. I remember the days of running DCs. Approving the power bill, generator fuel bills, etc. gave me mini heart attacks every months, plus the Capex required to purchase and refresh all the hardware. Just speaking at the cost part. The shifting of complexity... choose your hard.
