This is a demo project to demonstrate how easy is to deploy an application (Web Server) in a K8S multi-cloud cluster (including Akamai Cloud Computing) using Terraform. It will also create an Akamai GTM (Global Traffic Management) configuration to balance the traffic between all nodes, the Akamai Property (CDN configuration) to deliver the content using the Akamai Edge Network and all Akamai Edge DNS entries needed.
- DON'T EXPOSE OR COMMIT ANY SECRET IN THE PROJECT.
Terraform 1.5.x- IaC automation tool.Kubectl- Kubernetes CLI.Nginx 1.x- Web Server.K3S 1.28.x- Lightweight K8S.
