A Terraform module to manage a Talos-based Kubernetes on AWS (EC2 instances). Is uses the official Talos Terraform provider in the background. We mainly followed the provided siderolabs/contrib example.
- Install Talos Linux OS EC2 VMs
- For now, it's only supported to deploy the VMs in public subnets with public IPs assigned
- Support for single- and multi-node cluster architectures
- Bootstrap Talos Kubernetes cluster with some infrastructure components:
- Talos' KubePrism to get an internal endpoint for the KAPI (used for Cilium Kube-Proxy replacement)
- kubernetes-sigs/metrics-server
- alex1989hu/kubelet-serving-cert-approver inspired by Talos' Deploying Metrics Server guide.
- Cilium features:
- Kube-Proxy replacement
- IPAM modes:
