Route outbound kubernetes traffic to NAT(in aws)
I have a Nat instance deployed in aws. I'd like to deploy a k8 nodes in private subnet and be able to route outbound external traffic through that NAT. How can I do that?
Solution 1:
You can do this in AWS - your worker nodes do not even need a public IP, they can egress through the NAT gateway. You will see NAT Gateways as an option under VPC. Check AWS documentation to ensure this is set up correctly AWS NAT Gateway This is how our staging environment is set up. Using EKS in AWS, they have some defaults that are useful (like the role for worker nodes).
