Overview
This guide contains the steps needed for a user to consume one of the “deployment option reference design’s” for the Rafay “Standard Operating Model”.
This option:
- Is based on Amazon EKS Kubernetes clusters
- Uses declarative specifications for all resources that can be version controlled and used to replicate/reproduce infrastructure anytime
- Uses AWS S3 for cluster backup and restore
- Uses the “more secure” IAM Roles for Service Accounts (IRSA) approach for allowing in-cluster resources to interact with AWS services.
- Uses “GitHub Actions” for turnkey automation and workflows
