The image is available on cgr.dev:

docker pull cgr.dev/chainguard/eks-distro-fips:latest

Usage

Amazon EKS Distro (EKS-D) is a Kubernetes distribution based on and used by Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS) to create reliable and secure Kubernetes clusters. For more Information

Components

This deployment includes the following critical components:

• CoreDNS: A DNS server that integrates with Kubernetes.
• EBS CSI Driver: A Container Storage Interface (CSI) driver for managing AWS Elastic Block Store volumes.
• Kubernetes CSI drivers: External provisioners, resizers, and snapshot controllers to manage storage resources effectively.

Installation

For installation instructions, visit the EBS CSI Driver Install Guide.

1. Using Helm Chart

To deploy using Helm charts, you can use the following command. This command overrides the default image to use the Chainguard image

kubectl apply -k "github.com/kubernetes-sigs/aws-ebs-csi-driver/deploy/kubernetes/overlays/stable/?ref=release-1.35"

helm repo add aws-ebs-csi-driver https://kubernetes-sigs.github.io/aws-ebs-csi-driver
helm repo update

helm upgrade --install aws-ebs-csi-driver \
   --namespace kube-system \
   aws-ebs-csi-driver/aws-ebs-csi-driver \
   --set sidecars.provisioner.image.repository=cgr.dev/chainguard/eks-distro-kubernetes-csi-external-provisioner-fips \
   --set sidecars.provisioner.image.tag=latest \
   --set sidecars.attacher.image.repository=cgr.dev/chainguard/eks-distro-kubernetes-csi-external-attacher-fips \
   --set sidecars.attacher.image.tag=latest \
   --set sidecars.resizer.image.repository=cgr.dev/chainguard/eks-distro-kubernetes-csi-external-resizer-fips \
   --set sidecars.resizer.image.tag=latest \
   --set sidecars.livenessProbe.image.repository=cgr.dev/chainguard/eks-distro-kubernetes-csi-livenessprobe-fips \
   --set sidecars.livenessProbe.image.tag=latest

Refer to the values.yaml file for more configuration options.

2. Using Amazon EKS/KOPS Clusters

To test the EBS CSI driver functionality and verify its deployment, we need to create and deploy an EKS cluster. Similarly, for testing kube-components, we can create and deploy a KOPS cluster and update the manifests accordingly.
