I think there are many variations and custom setups, see the Kubernetes on AWS users list: https://github.com/hjacobs/kubernetes-on-aws-users

We (at Zalando) chose to adapt kube-aws as it perfectly fits our mental model and what we used before (Cloud Formation + immutable nodes): http://kubernetes-on-aws.readthedocs.io/en/latest/admin-guide/kubernetes-in-production.html

I totally understand that some people don't like Cloud Formation and some people want to use their favorite OS (where they have experience with), so I think some parts cannot easily converge while others (the whole Kubernetes system including e.g. kube2iam) should definitely converge 😄

Why is "Google Cloud" and "Azure" listed here below "Kubernetes Cluster on AWS"? 😏

@hjacobs Remove "Other" offerings, will keep it explicitly for AWS!

We built an CFN/AMI too: https://github.com/weaveworks/kubernetes-ami
(More simple than the Heptio one.)

@pidster is there a way to create multi-master cluster using this template? Single master would be used for development only.

For tectonic, I would include a link to the graphical installer for AWS: https://coreos.com/tectonic/docs/latest/install/aws/

There's also Kargo: https://github.com/kubernetes-incubator/kargo

There is also http://www.clocker.io/ and

We're building a way to deploy Kubernetes using BOSH (We call it Kubo). It supports multiple platforms including AWS. Guide here: https://github.com/cloudfoundry-incubator/kubo-deployment/blob/master/docs/user-guide/README.md
