Oracle Container Engine for Kubernetes (OKE) and Bastion Host with Resource Manager in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI)
This tutorial is made to create a OKE Cluster (Oracle Container Engine for Kubernetes) and a Bastion Host to manage it on top of Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI).
All here was made to make this Cloud Native Workshop easier and replace the following steps:
- Lab 200: Install and Configure Virtual Box
- Lab 200: Provision Kubernetes Using Terraform: Set Up Oracle Cloud Infrastructure
- Lab 200: Provision Kubernetes Using Terraform: Provision Kubernetes Using Terraform
The localhost connection will be made trough a SSH tunnel with the Bastion Host forwarding the remote 8001 port to localhost.
Prerequisites
- Oracle Cloud Account (can be a simple trial account)
- Github Account
- Wercker Account
What we will use
- Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console
- Terraform Configuration Language for Oracle Cloud to be used with Resource Manager and provision our Bastion Host, the associated cloud infrastructure and manage the IAM (Identity and Access Management)service
- Oracle Container Engine for Kubernetes (OKE) to create a managed Kubernetes Cluster
- Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Registry (OCIR) to store and share Docker container images
- Wercker to manage our container pipelines
Labs
The labs from 040 to 070 will walk you through the creation of all the resources managed by the Resource Manager in the Hands-On Lab. So, if you want to provision a standardized Oracle Cloud Infrastructure without publish security information in logs or other files, follow the labs from 040 to 070.
ATTENTION
In this workshop, creating resources manually is a more secure way to work, since we made here some simplifications that expose security informations that must not be shared or exposed. At the end of the Lab 050, there is a Terraform configuration zip file that does not expose the security information managed at the Lab 050. If you use this fil, you can jump directly to the Lab 100 after the completion of Lab 050.
