how to configure SSL Termination at AWS ELB created by ingress controller using k8s service YAML
how to authenticate and authorize AWS IAM users to AWS EKS cluster using aws-iam-authenticator, aws-auth ConfigMap, and RBAC (Role Based Access Control) aka ClusterRoleBinding
how to authorize Pods to AWS resources by creating pod-level IAM permission using IRSA (IAM Role for Service Account)
how to scale EKS worker nodes automatically using CA (Cluster Autoscaler using IRSA) and how to stress test it
how to scale pods automatically using HPA (horizontal pod autoscaler) and how to stress test it
why you shouldn’t use eksctl managed worker nodes in production
