Configure S3 object storage as snapshot repository for elasticsearch on ECK

Creating S3 repository for elasticsearch using minio as the s3 object storage backend Please note that this should not be used in production, this is a lab environment to provide guidance for configuration. With many kubernetes environments you can have the cloud provided object storage that can be configured with ECK and used as your snapshot repositories, this guide is more for 3rd party object storage that you might have if you are not on cloud and for modifying existing deployments to configure new snapshot repositories. I will perform the steps in GKE environment onto the default namespace Install minio… Continue Reading

The certificate that we will create will be for internal use but you can and should create a more secure certificate to be used in your environment.

There are 2 ways of configuring snapshot repository and snapshots on ECE. First you can configure the snapshot repository on ECE. Once you configure the snapshot repository in the Admin UI, you can configure found-snapshots for each deployment via the Admin UI. Unfortunately,… Continue Reading
