Efficient Kubernetes Cluster Deployment: Accelerating Setup with EKS Blueprints
Upon reviewing EKS Blueprints, I found myself pondering its relationship with terraform-aws-modules-eks. In reality, EKS Blueprints does not stand in opposition to or compete with terraform-aws-modules-eks; rather, it complements and extends its functionality. EKS Blueprints acts as a valuable enhancement to the standard EKS module, enriching it with additional features and refinements, effectively adding a touch of sweetness and spice to the existing framework.

AWS: Karpenter and SSH for Kubernetes WorkerNodes
For the Terraform, here you will need to add thenode_security_group_additional_rules in the EKS module for SSH access, and create an EC2 Instance Connect Endpoint for the VPC, as in my case we create VPC and EKS separately.

What Is Flux CD & How Does It Work? [Tutorial]
In addition to your app's resources, Flux CD creates Custom Resources in your cluster that describe the Flux configuration being used. For example, a GitRepository object will be created for apps that are being deployed from Git. You can save the manifests for these objects and commit them to another repository to programmatically manage Flux itself using an IaC solution like Terraform.

Using Terraform to both create kubernetes clusters (AKS) and deploy helm charts in the same project - good or bad?
IMO, a better approach would be to provision your cluster using terraform, then do cluster operations using a GitOps tool, such as GitOps Toolkit (Flux v2) - https://toolkit.fluxcd.io/. You can point multiple clusters to the same repo and they are going to apply and reconcile the desired state for all or your clusters if needed. There’s also a Flux terraform provider - https://github.com/fluxcd/terraform-provider-flux, bootstrap flux then let it do its job.
- Does anyone use terraform to manage Kubernetes objects as opposed to using plain yamls/helm charts/kustomize?
