I wanna install Elasticsearch in AWS EKS. But

Second, create three EC2s, install elasticsearch with Docker for each instance, and connect clustering

Three, whether Elasticsearch can be installed with the EKS Fargate.

It may be an ignorant question, but I would appreciate it if you could give me an idea on how to reliably build Elasticsearch in EKS.

CodePudding user response：

I think the simpler way to install Elasticsearch (or ELK in general) is to use EKS with EFS driver. Then you can use Helm / Operator to install Elastic.

If you strive for highest Elastic performance, or/and have bigger cluster, then I'd go with your Second solution, so install each Elastic node on a separate EC2 instance.

CodePudding user response：

You can use the Helm chart to deploy the elastic search on EKS cluster.

https://github.com/elastic/helm-charts/tree/main/elasticsearch

So by default, it will use the storage class, which will be disk and it will give better performance. Accordingly, you can change the storage class and disk changes as per requirement in the helm chart.

it's also good to deploy the Elasticsearch on separate nodes however creating networking and managing might not be as easy as on Kubernetes cluster.
