Setting up K8s on AWS with Kubeadm and Manual Certificate Distribution
Credit for this post goes to Christian Del Pino, who created this content and was willing to let me publish it here.
The topic of setting up Kubernetes on AWS (including the use of the AWS cloud provider) is a topic I’ve tackled a few different times here on this site (see here, here, and here for other posts on this subject). In this post, I’ll share information provided to me by a reader, Christian Del Pino, about setting up Kubernetes on AWS with kubeadm but using manual certificate distribution (in other words, not allowing kubeadm to distribute certificates among multiple control plane nodes). As I pointed out above, all this content came from Christian Del Pino; I’m merely sharing it here with his permission.
This post specifically builds upon this post on setting up an AWS-integrated Kubernetes 1.15 cluster, but is written for Kubernetes 1.17. As mentioned above, this post will also show you how to manually distribute the certificates that kubeadm generates to other control plane nodes.
What this post won’t cover are the details on some of the prerequisites for making the AWS cloud provider function properly; specifically, this post won’t discuss:

[Blog] Do We Need Complex Data Center Switches for VMware NSX Underlay
Martin Casado quickly replied NO (probably before reading the whole article), starting a whole barrage of overlay-focused neteng-versus-devs fun.
