0:00 Okay, so to create our EKS cluster on AWS, we're gonna use 0:04 a command line tool called eksctl, which is the official 0:08 CLI for Amazon EKS, and will allow us to easily 0:12 create and manage our clusters from the command line. 0:15 So to get started, let's click on the Introduction page, and 0:19 we are at eksctl.io. 0:22 Click on Introduction, and then on the right here, let's click on 0:25 Installation to find out how we can install eksctl. 0:30 So you can see for your operating system, we have different installation commands. 0:34 Here is for Windows and for Unix. 0:37 So go ahead and copy and paste these commands into your 0:40 terminal to make sure you 0:41 have eksctl, it, properly installed. 0:45 So after you have it installed, you should be able to go to your command 0:48 line and 0:48 run eksctl get clusters, and this is gonna use 0:52 the default AWS credentials we set up at the beginning. 0:57 We wanna go ahead and define a new cluster config file in 1:00 our project that 1:01 will define how our cluster is created. 1:04 So if we go back to the documentation and go to the homepage, we can 1:08 scroll down until we find a default cluster.yaml file. 1:12 Let's go ahead and copy this, and then we can go back to our root 1:15 project 1:16 and create a new cluster.yaml, and I'll paste in this 1:20 cluster config, 1:22 where we can change the name to be called sleeper, and I'm gonna 1:26 change the region to be closest to me, which is 1:28 us-east-1. Feel, feel free to use whichever region you 1:32 would like. 1:33 And then importantly, we have different node groups defined, 1:36 and this is gonna be 1:37 the nodes we have available to run our workloads. 1:40 In our case, we only want to run one node group. 1:44 So we can call it NG1, and we wanna change the instance type
