Demo Terraform Setup for K8s + Kasten.io

See my Series Working with Kubernetes and Terraform on the Veeam Blog:

• Part 1: Concepts Behind Terraform Kubernetes
• Part 2: Hands-on Deploying K8s with Terraform
• Part 3: Installing Kasten using Terraform

Structure

• ./cluster contains cluster level Terraform code. Apply this first.
• ./applications contains Terraform code for things inside the cluster. Apply this second.
• ./demo-app contains a minimal database to demonstrate back-up & restore with Kasten.

Building on top of this

If you read the blog posts and would like to use this code as the foundation for your own work, you are welcome to do so. The code is published under the MIT license and you are free to use it.

But there are a couple of things to consider:

• You'd probably want to add a backend configuration. Otherwise, yes, commit the .tfstate files.
• This isn't a production ready cluster. See the section "Further Optimisation" in the second blog post.
