AWS Resources Utilized by Ankra

An Ankra Cluster integrates with various AWS resources to construct a robust cloud infrastructure:

IAM Policy: Manages permissions for AWS resources, ensuring secure access control.
VPC (Virtual Private Cloud): Provides network isolation for enhanced security.
Elastic IPs: Assigns public IP addresses for NAT Gateways and Bastion hosts, facilitating network accessibility.
Keypair: Enables secure remote access authorization.
Subnets: Establishes private and public network segments across availability zones.
NAT Gateway: Acts as a network gateway for private subnets.
Internet Gateway: Facilitates connectivity for public networks.
Security Groups: Functions as a firewall, regulating network traffic for enhanced security.
Routing Tables: Defines network routing rules for efficient data transfer paths.
Elastic Block Storage (EBS): Offers network-based storage solutions, compatible with both instances and Kubernetes pod storage.
