Express Web App – Part Four | EKS Deployment with Terraform
In Part Four of the Express Web App project, we move deeper into real-world cloud infrastructure by deploying our application using Amazon EKS (Elastic Kubernetes Service) and Terraform.
This session is focused on infrastructure readiness—building everything a production-grade Express.js app needs before deployment.
What you’ll learn in this video:
• How to set up a Terraform remote backend with S3 + DynamoDB for state and locking
• Creating a private ECR repository for storing Docker images
• Building, tagging, and pushing your app image using the build_and_push.sh script
• Provisioning an EKS cluster with networking, IAM, and security groups
• Best practices for cleaning up AWS resources with Terraform destroy
By the end of this session, you’ll have a production-ready infrastructure for hosting containerized applications on EKS.
