Installing ECK with Terraform on GCP

Fram Souza's guide outlines the process of deploying Elastic Cloud on Kubernetes (ECK) using Terraform on Google Cloud Platform (GCP), emphasizing the simplicity of setting up a Kubernetes cluster with ECK by executing just three commands. The tutorial involves creating a Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) cluster with a node pool consisting of three nodes, deploying the ECK operator, and establishing an Elasticsearch cluster with three nodes alongside a Kibana instance. The prerequisites include having Terraform and gcloud commands installed, and the setup involves authenticating with Google Cloud, configuring environment variables, and running a sequence of Terraform commands to initialize, plan, and apply the infrastructure changes. The guide provides specific instructions on accessing the Kubernetes cluster and Kibana service, and concludes with cleanup instructions using Terraform destroy, encouraging further exploration of ECK in production environments and with Helm.
