AWS Immuta Deployment

Prerequisites

This article uses skopeo to copy container images betweeen registries. Please install for your host OS according to the documentation here:

skopeo/install.md at main · containers/skopeoGitHub

Deployment Steps

Create Immuta image repositories in ECR

AWS_ACCOUNT_ID=$(aws sts get-caller-identity --query Account --output text)
AWS_REGION=us-east-1

for image in audit-service audit-export-cronjob cache classify-service detect-temporal-worker immuta-service temporal-admin-tools temporal-proxy temporal-server; do
  aws ecr create-repository \
      --repository-name immuta/$image \
      --region ${AWS_REGION};
done

Authenticate to ECR

aws ecr get-login-password --region ${AWS_REGION} | skopeo login --username AWS --password-stdin ${AWS_ACCOUNT_ID}.dkr.ecr.${AWS_REGION}.amazonaws.com

Copy images to ECR

export IMMUTA_VERSION=2024.3.0
for image in audit-service audit-export-cronjob cache classify-service detect-temporal-worker immuta-service temporal-admin-tools temporal-proxy temporal-server; do
  skopeo copy docker://ocir.immuta.com/stable/$image:${IMMUTA_VERSION} docker://${AWS_ACCOUNT_ID}.dkr.ecr.${AWS_REGION}.amazonaws.com/immuta/$image:${IMMUTA_VERSION};
done

Deploy EKS Cluster

Run eksctl create cluster with a file like the one below but updated with appropriate values for the destination environment

eksctl create cluster -f immuta-lts.yaml

Create service account for the EBS CSI Driver and AWS Load Balancer Controller

This creates an IAM role and associates it with a kubernetes service account. For the ebs-csi-controller we only create the IAM role and allow the addon to create the service account.

Prerequisites

If this is the first time running an EKS Cluster with the AWS Load Balancer Controller the IAM policy must be created first:

curl -o iam-policy.json https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubernetes-sigs/aws-load-balancer-controller/v2.7.2/docs/install/iam_policy.json
aws iam create-policy \
    --policy-name AWSLoadBalancerControllerIAMPolicy \
    --policy-document file://iam-policy.json

EKS_CLUSTER_NAME=immuta-lts
eksctl create iamserviceaccount --cluster ${EKS_CLUSTER_NAME} \
                                --name ebs-csi-controller-sa \
                                --namespace kube-system \
                                --role-name ${EKS_CLUSTER_NAME}-ebs-csi-driver-role \
                                --role-only \
                                --attach-policy-arn arn:aws:iam::aws:policy/service-role/AmazonEBSCSIDriverPolicy \
                                --approve

eksctl create iamserviceaccount --cluster ${EKS_CLUSTER_NAME} \
                                --name aws-load-balancer-controller \
                                --namespace kube-system \
                                --attach-policy-arn arn:aws:iam::${AWS_ACCOUNT_ID}:policy/AWSLoadBalancerControllerIAMPolicy  \
                                --approve

Enable the EBS CSI Driver Addon

eksctl create addon --name aws-ebs-csi-driver \
                    --cluster ${EKS_CLUSTER_NAME} \
                    --service-account-role-arn arn:aws:iam::${AWS_ACCOUNT_ID}:role/${EKS_CLUSTER_NAME}-ebs-csi-driver-role

Deploy the AWS Load Balancer Controller

helm repo add eks https://aws.github.io/eks-charts
helm install aws-load-balancer-controller eks/aws-load-balancer-controller \
             --namespace kube-system \
             --set clusterName=${EKS_CLUSTER_NAME} \
             --set serviceAccount.create=false \
             --set serviceAccount.name=aws-load-balancer-controller

Deploy external-dns

If you control the DNS zone your application is being deployed to from the existing AWS account, you can automatically make DNS updates by installing external-dns

helm repo add external-dns https://kubernetes-sigs.github.io/external-dns
helm upgrade --install --create-namespace --namespace=external-dns external-dns external-dns/external-dns

Create RDS Instance in EKS VPC

EKS_VPC_ID=$(aws ec2 describe-vpcs --filters "Name=tag:Name,Values=eksctl-${EKS_CLUSTER_NAME}-cluster/VPC" --query "Vpcs[*].VpcId" --output text)
EKS_SUBNET_IDS=$(aws ec2 describe-subnets --filters "Name=tag:alpha.eksctl.io/cluster-name,Values=${EKS_CLUSTER_NAME}" --query "Subnets[*].SubnetId" --output json)
EKS_SHARED_SG_ID=$(aws ec2 describe-security-groups --filters "Name=tag:Name,Values=eksctl-${EKS_CLUSTER_NAME}-cluster/ClusterSharedNodeSecurityGroup" --query "SecurityGroups[*].GroupId" --output text)
DB_STORAGE=150
DB_USER=postgres
DB_PASSWORD=immuta-lts-postgres-password
DB_INSTANCE_CLASS=db.m5.large

aws rds create-db-subnet-group --db-subnet-group-name ${EKS_CLUSTER_NAME}-group \
                               --db-subnet-group-description "Subnet Group for ${EKS_CLUSTER_NAME} RDS" \
                               --subnet-ids ${EKS_SUBNET_IDS}
                               
aws rds create-db-instance --db-instance-identifier ${EKS_CLUSTER_NAME} \
                           --db-instance-class ${DB_INSTANCE_CLASS} \
                           --engine postgres \
                           --master-username ${DB_USER} \
                           --master-user-password ${DB_PASSWORD} \
                           --allocated-storage ${DB_STORAGE} \
                           --vpc-security-group-ids ${EKS_SHARED_SG_ID} \
                           --db-subnet-group-name ${EKS_CLUSTER_NAME}-group

Create Bastion EC2 to configure RDS

Allow inbound SSH to the shared node security group. Recommend limiting CIDR to something more narrow than in this example:

aws ec2 authorize-security-group-ingress --group-id  ${EKS_SHARED_SG_ID} \
                                         --protocol tcp \
                                         --port 22 \
                                         --cidr 0.0.0.0/0

Launch an instance using the latest Amazon Linux 2023 image

PUBLIC_SUBNET_ID=$(aws ec2 describe-subnets --filters "Name=tag:Name,Values=eksctl-${EKS_CLUSTER_NAME}*Public*" --query "Subnets[0].SubnetId" --output text)
SSH_KEY_NAME=immuta-ps-shared
BASTION_INSTANCE_TYPE=t3.micro
RDS_ENDPOINT=$(aws rds describe-db-instances --db-instance-identifier ${EKS_CLUSTER_NAME} --query "DBInstances[*].Endpoint.Address" --output text)

aws ec2 run-instances --image-id resolve:ssm:/aws/service/ami-amazon-linux-latest/al2023-ami-kernel-default-x86_64 \
                      --instance-type ${BASTION_INSTANCE_TYPE} \
                      --region ${AWS_REGION} \
                      --key-name ${SSH_KEY_NAME} \
                      --security-group-ids ${EKS_SHARED_SG_ID} \
                      --subnet-id ${PUBLIC_SUBNET_ID} \
                      --associate-public-ip-address \
                      --tag-specifications "ResourceType=instance,Tags=[{Key=Name,Value=${EKS_CLUSTER_NAME}-bastion}]"

SSH Into the EC2 instance and install postgresql client

BASTION_PUBLIC_IP=$(aws ec2 describe-instances --filters "Name=tag:Name,Values=${EKS_CLUSTER_NAME}-bastion" --query "Reservations[*].Instances[*].PublicIpAddress"  --output text)
RDS_ENDPOINT=$(aws rds describe-db-instances --db-instance-identifier ${EKS_CLUSTER_NAME} --query "DBInstances[*].Endpoint.Address" --output text)
echo $RDS_ENDPOINT
ssh -i ~/.ssh/immuta-ps-shared.pem ec2-user@${BASTION_PUBLIC_IP}
sudo yum install -y postgresql15

Connect to the RDS endpoint using the credentials set when creating the instance

psql postgresql://postgres:immuta-lts-postgres-password@immuta-lts.cfzynskvahpp.us-east-1.rds.amazonaws.com

Complete the steps in the Immuta documentation for first time database setup
