1
00:00:02,160 --> 00:00:04,050
So here, in this module,

2
00:00:04,050 --> 00:00:08,020
I will again use AWS as an example.

3
00:00:08,020 --> 00:00:10,410
Before we get started with that though,

4
00:00:10,410 --> 00:00:12,670
I, of course, also want to emphasize

5
00:00:12,670 --> 00:00:15,420
that it's just one example.

6
00:00:15,420 --> 00:00:18,730
There are other cloud providers out there as well.

7
00:00:18,730 --> 00:00:20,880
For example, Azure, if you Google for

8
00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:24,650
Azure Managed Kubernetes, also has a Kubernetes service

9
00:00:24,650 --> 00:00:27,673
you could use for deploying Kubernetes applications.

10
00:00:28,547 --> 00:00:30,890
AWS is just one example

11
00:00:30,890 --> 00:00:34,110
because I have to go with one example at the end.

12
00:00:34,110 --> 00:00:37,390
Of course you can use other services as well.

13
00:00:37,390 --> 00:00:40,370
You will need to dive into their documentation

14
00:00:40,370 --> 00:00:43,220
to see all the exact steps you need to perform

15
00:00:43,220 --> 00:00:45,470
to configure everything.

16
00:00:45,470 --> 00:00:49,230
But in the end, what we deploy, our Kubernetes application,

17
00:00:49,230 --> 00:00:50,713
will always be the same.

18
00:00:51,980 --> 00:00:54,290
So therefore here, AWS is it.

19
00:00:54,290 --> 00:00:56,650
And I also want to emphasize right away

20
00:00:56,650 --> 00:01:01,650
that this example here, using AWS EKS, will cost money.

21
00:01:03,350 --> 00:01:05,239
You can check out their pricing page

22
00:01:05,239 --> 00:01:07,490
to learn more about pricing,

23
00:01:07,490 --> 00:01:10,430
and you can also learn more about their free tier here

24
00:01:10,430 --> 00:01:12,690
to find out what's free.

25
00:01:12,690 --> 00:01:15,300
But there are certain aspects here,

26
00:01:15,300 --> 00:01:18,630
certain services which we use, which, to my knowledge,

27
00:01:18,630 --> 00:01:21,940
at least, are not covered by that free tier.

28
00:01:21,940 --> 00:01:25,030
But you can dive into these docs to learn exactly

29
00:01:25,030 --> 00:01:27,930
what costs money and what doesn't.

30
00:01:27,930 --> 00:01:31,010
Now, as I said, what we're going to do in this module,

31
00:01:31,010 --> 00:01:34,000
to my knowledge, will incur some costs,

32
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:36,600
but we're not talking about a lot there.

33
00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:39,300
To find out how much something costs,

34
00:01:39,300 --> 00:01:43,950
again, always check out the AWS pricing pages.

35
00:01:43,950 --> 00:01:45,920
This is something you will have to do

36
00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:49,370
because this can change over time and only you can know

37
00:01:49,370 --> 00:01:51,773
what you're willing to pay and what you're not.

38
00:01:52,620 --> 00:01:54,860
In addition, you need a credit card

39
00:01:54,860 --> 00:01:57,130
to create an AWS account.

40
00:01:57,130 --> 00:01:59,760
Maybe you already created one earlier

41
00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:01,170
because you followed along

42
00:02:01,170 --> 00:02:04,000
when we deployed everything without Kubernetes.

43
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:07,090
If you didn't, yes, you need a credit card,

44
00:02:07,090 --> 00:02:08,830
but that's basically the same

45
00:02:08,830 --> 00:02:11,770
no matter which cloud provider you use.

46
00:02:11,770 --> 00:02:14,600
At some point of time things can cost money

47
00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:17,830
and therefore you need a credit card.

48
00:02:17,830 --> 00:02:20,390
Of course you can still follow along passively

49
00:02:20,390 --> 00:02:22,270
if you don't have one at the moment

50
00:02:22,270 --> 00:02:25,480
to still get an idea of how everything works,

51
00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:27,880
which then could help you if you're in a job

52
00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:31,660
where your company is paying for this anyways.

53
00:02:31,660 --> 00:02:33,350
With all of that out of the way,

54
00:02:33,350 --> 00:02:36,020
create such an AWS account,

55
00:02:36,020 --> 00:02:38,780
and once you got that and you're logged in,

56
00:02:38,780 --> 00:02:42,010
you should see some starting screen like this.

57
00:02:42,010 --> 00:02:44,750
The exact look might vary over time

58
00:02:44,750 --> 00:02:48,600
but you should be able to dive into the services here

59
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:51,220
and you can also search for services here.

60
00:02:51,220 --> 00:02:54,430
And you should search for EKS here,

61
00:02:54,430 --> 00:02:56,913
the Elastic Kubernetes Service.

62
00:02:57,950 --> 00:03:00,190
Selected it and you're taken

63
00:03:00,190 --> 00:03:03,273
to the Elastic Kubernetes Service page.
