Creating Let's Encrypt certificates for IBM free Kubernetes clusters

The IBM Kubernetes service free clusters consist of a single worker node with 2 CPU and 4 GB of memory for experimenting with Kubernetes. Unlike the fee-based service, these clusters do not include capabilities for application load balancing using ingress out-of-the-box. However, if you manage a DNS domain (any provider will suffice) and can add an A record, it's possible for you to configure your own ingress that can provide http and https session termination for your containerized applications. Getting a TLS-enabled website or simply an external REST API couldn't be easier!

Prerequisites

• Free IBM Kubernetes Cluster (IKS) - upgrade your account from Lite plan to create one. In the example commands, we'll assume that this cluster is named mycluster
• kubectl - match your cluster API version (as of 5/17/20 - this is ~1.16.9)
• helm v3
• DNS domain that you can edit to configure

VMware and Chef tools

Chef and VMware are a natural pairing and there are several tools available to enhance the integration.

Knife is a command-line tool that provides an interface between a local chef-repo and the Chef server and allows you to manipulate objects on the Chef server. Knife plugin allows your computer to talk to a 3rd party systems like vSphere or vRA. A plugin can create a VM in vSphere and then bootstrap it with Chef, for example, or it can expose your vRa catalog to your workstation so you don't need to use a GUI.

The following are the main interfaces with VMware and Chef our "knife" plugins.

• knife-vsphere
• knife-vrealize
