Summary

The Aerospike Kubernetes Operator abstracts away the complexity of configuring a high-performance distributed database, making it easy to instantiate an Aerospike database in a Kubernetes cluster. However, ensuring that storage is fully deleted and other redundant resources are removed after terminating a database cluster is crucial to avoid unwelcome AWS charges. The article reviews how to create a simple AWS EKS cluster, install the Aerospike Kubernetes Operator, and manage Aerospike database clusters, including creating and deleting storage volumes and claims. It also highlights the importance of cleaning up resources properly, as leaving persistent volumes associated with Aerospike undeleted can result in large, unwelcome AWS bills.
