In Apache Cassandra Lunch #27: Cassandra on Baremetal / Virtual Machines / Containers, we cover different methods in which we can deploy Cassandra whether it be on Baremetal, Virtual Machines, or Containers; as well as, pros, cons, and deployment tools. The live recording of Cassandra Lunch, which includes a more in-depth discussion, is also embedded below in case you were not able to attend live. If you would like to attend Apache Cassandra Lunch live, it is hosted every Wednesday at 12 PM EST. Register here now!

Today I’m going to walk you through how to deploy Kubernetes on AWS using Terraform. In Part 1 of this series, I mentioned that I had a tough time getting my terraform demonstration to work because of my auto-scaling configuration. That resulted in endless instances being spun up on my AWS account and prevented me from creating more due to the limit. This time around I was able to get my demo working successfully! The procedure and setup are different from my first attempt however I had an in-depth overview of Kubernetes in the first webinar so I will include them in the same series.

In this blog post, I’m going to introduce you to Ansible, an open-source software provisioning, configuration management, and application-deployment tool enabling infrastructure as code. I’ll cover what Ansible is, what it can do, and how you can start using it today. I have also linked my accompanying webinar in this post to help you get started!

In this blog post, I’ll be walking you through how to create Production and Development environments on Amazon’s Web Service. If you would like an introduction or a refresher on Terraform, please refer to my previous blog post. Without further ado, let’s get into this demo.

In this blog post, I will walk you through what Kubernetes is, how and why it is used, what it can do, and who uses it today. Afterward, I’ll discuss how to first set up your Linux instance on AWS, install some dependencies then deploy Kubernetes on AWS using Terraform.
