How to configure K9s for Cloudera Data Engineering

[#1]

Inspired by @sunile_manjee 's article How to use K9s to fetch metrics and logs for Cloudera Data Warehouse Experience , I decided to create the same tutorial for Cloudera Data Engineering.

The process is very similar, as you can see below.

Pre-Requisites

• CDE environment setup
• K9s installed on your machine (instructions here)
• AWS user ARN
• AWS configure (CLI) pointing to your AWS env (instructions here)

Step 1: Add your AWS user to the CDE environment

1. In your AWS account console, go to IAM > Users > Search for your user name > copy your ARN:
   
2. In the CDE main page, go to environment details:
   
3. Then, go to access and add your ARN:
   

Step 2: Download the kubeconfig

• In the CDE main page, click on the 3 dots, then Download Kube Config:

Step 3: Run K9s

• You can now run k9s, by running:

  k9s --kubeconfig ~/Downloads/kubeconfig​

  Note: the path to your downloaded kubeconfig is subject to change of course.
