How to deploy Tetragon on an eks cluster
Blog post from Stream.Security
Deploying Tetragon on an Amazon EKS cluster involves preparing an active AWS account, setting up AWS CLI and kubectl, and ensuring the EKS cluster is operational. Tetragon, a tool for security observability and runtime enforcement in cloud-native environments, is installed as a Kubernetes DaemonSet, ensuring its operation on each cluster node. The installation is typically done using a Helm chart by adding the Tetragon Helm repository, updating the local cache, and installing the chart, although Kubernetes manifests can also be used. Post-installation, Tetragon requires configuration to meet specific security and observability needs, which may include setting up logging, metrics, and security policies. Verification of Tetragon's deployment is done by checking the status of its pods and logs in the kube-system namespace to ensure proper functionality.
