Overview

The HyperCloud™ Platform (HCP) supports standard Kubernetes Blueprint deployments. You can deploy a Kubernetes blueprint only on a Kubernetes cluster.
Follow these steps to create a Kubernetes Blueprint using YAML.

Deploy Managed Kubernetes Clusters

You can deploy a managed Kubernetes Cluster for these providers:

Microsoft Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS)
Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS)

Microsoft Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS)

The HyperCloud^TM Platform (HCP) lets you deploy a Kubernetes Cluster using Microsoft Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS).

Before you begin
Ensure that you have sufficient resources in a Resource Pool.

Follow these steps to deploy a Kubernetes Cluster using Microsoft Azure Kubernetes Service:

Login to your HCP portal account.
Click Service Orchestration and navigate to Containers > Click New to launch the Kubernetes Cluster Wizard.
Enter the following details in the Kubernetes Cluster Wizard:
1. Enter a Name for your Cluster.
2. From the Cloud drop-down, elect Microsoft Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS.)
3. Select the Instance Type from the drop-down. ^[1]
4. Select your Resource Pool.
5. Select Machine Type.
6. Enter the value for Node Count per Zone.
7. Select a Resource Group from the drop-down list.
Click Save Changes.
Click open the Cluster and navigate to Timeline > Click View Execution Logs.

Note

If you get an “Operation could not be completed as it results in exceeding approved standardDFamily Cores quota,” you’ll need to:
- Choose a different instance or,
- Contact your HCP Cloud Administrator requesting an increase in the quota.

Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS)

Our HyperCloud^TM Platform (HCP) lets you deploy a Kubernetes Cluster using Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS.)

[1] Caution
You’ll need at least two Amazon Web Services (AWS) resources from different Availability Zones before deploying Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS.)

Follow these steps to deploy a Kubernetes Cluster using Amazon EKS:

Login to your HCP account.
Click Service Orchestration and navigate to Containers > Click New to launch the Kubernetes Cluster Wizard.
Enter these details in the Kubernetes Cluster Wizard:
1. Enter a Name for your Kubernetes Cluster.
2. Select Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (AKS) from the Target drop-down list.
3. Select High-Availability from the cluster Type drop-down list.
4. Select your Resource Pool from the drop-down list of available resource pools. ^[1]
5. Select your Machine Type from the drop-down list.
  1. Enter the Node Count per Zone.
  2. The AutoScale Custer is enabled by default. You can disable it if you do not want to automatically scale your Kubernetes Cluster.
  3. Enter the Minimum Worker per Pool.
  4. Enter the Maximum Worker per Pool.
6. Select the Amazon EKS Role from the Role ARN list.
7. Select Resource Group from the drop-down list.
8. You can Entitle Users to your Blueprint in one of the following ways:
  - Select Everyone to provide access to all users.
  - Select Groups & Users to provide access to specific users.
    1. Enter the first three alphabets of the username in the Users drop-down and select the username.
    2. Type the first three alphabets of the Group Name in the Groups drop-down and select the group name.
