The AWS Cloud Map Multi-cluster Service Discovery Controller for Kubernetes (K8s) implements the Kubernetes multi-cluster services API specification, which allows services to communicate across multiple clusters. The implementation relies on AWS Cloud Map for enabling cross-cluster service discovery. For multi-cluster service discovery and consumption, the controller should be installed on a minimum of 2 EKS clusters. Participating clusters should be provisioned into a single AWS account, within a single AWS region. Install the The CoreDNS multicluster plugin into each participating cluster. The multicluster plugin enables CoreDNS to lifecycle manage DNS records for ServiceImport objects. The controller must have sufficient IAM permissions to perform required Cloud Map operations. Grant IAM access rights AWSCloudMapFullAccess to the controller Service Account to enable the controller to manage Cloud Map resources.
