Developing on EKS
Throughout the book, we’ve looked at how to build EKS clusters and deploy workloads. In this chapter, we will look at some ways you can make these activities more efficient if you’re a developer or DevOps engineer using automation and CI/CD.
In this chapter, we will discuss the tools and techniques you can use to deploy and test clusters and workloads natively on AWS, or by using third-party tools. We will cover the following:
- Different IT personas
- Using Cloud9 as your integrated development environment
- Building clusters with EKS Blueprints and Terraform
- Using CodePipeline and CodeBuild to build clusters
- Using Argo CD, Crossplane, and GitOps to deploy workloads
