Build a Production-Ready RKE2 HA Cluster on AWS

Welcome to this hands-on course on building a production-ready RKE2 Kubernetes cluster on AWS .

In this course, you'll learn how to:

• Deploy an RKE2 cluster with high availability (3 server nodes and 3 agent nodes)

• Set up Ingress and an AWS Load Balancer to expose services

• Deploy a public test page to the internet using your new cluster

By the end of this course, you'll have your own scalable, internet-facing RKE2 cluster—ready for production workloads or further experimentation.

We'll be using Terraform scripts to automate the deployment process, making it faster, more reliable, and easier to manage in real-world environments. You'll also gain hands-on experience with cloud infrastructure provisioning, Kubernetes cluster architecture, and basic Ingress routing techniques.

No prior experience with RKE2 is required, but basic familiarity with AWS, the command line, and Terraform will be helpful.

This is a practical, step-by-step course designed to help you build real infrastructure, not just theoretical concepts. Whether you're a DevOps engineer, cloud enthusiast, or developer looking to expand your Kubernetes skills, this course will give you the tools and confidence to deploy your own cluster.

If you run into any issues, feel free to ask questions in the Q&A section—I'm here to help!
