# Existing Cluster with the AWS Observability accelerator base module and Infrastructure monitoring


This example demonstrates how to use the AWS Observability Accelerator Terraform
modules with Infrastructure monitoring enabled.
The current example deploys the [AWS Distro for OpenTelemetry Operator](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/eks/latest/userguide/opentelemetry.html) for Amazon EKS with its requirements and make use of existing
Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus and Amazon Managed Grafana workspaces.

It is based on the `infrastructure monitoring`, one of our [workloads modules](../../modules/workloads/)
to provide an existing EKS cluster with an OpenTelemetry collector,
curated Grafana dashboards, Prometheus alerting and recording rules with multiple
configuration options on the cluster infrastructure.


## Prerequisites

Ensure that you have the following tools installed locally:

1. [aws cli v2](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/getting-started-install.html)
2. [kubectl](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/tools/)
3. [terraform](https://learn.hashicorp.com/tutorials/terraform/install-cli)


## Setup

This example uses a local terraform state. If you need states to be saved remotely,
on Amazon S3 for example, visit the [terraform remote states](https://www.terraform.io/language/state/remote) documentation

1. Clone the repo using the command below

```
git clone https://github.com/aws-observability/terraform-aws-observability-accelerator.git
```

2. Initialize terraform

```console
cd examples/existing-cluster-with-base-and-infra
terraform init
```

3. AWS Region

Specify the AWS Region where the resources will be deployed. Edit the `terraform.tfvars` file and modify `aws_region="..."`. You can also use environement variables `export TF_VAR_aws_region=xxx`.

4. Amazon EKS Cluster

To run this example, you need to provide your EKS cluster name.
If you don't have a cluster ready, visit [this example](../eks-cluster-with-vpc)
first to create a new one.

Add your cluster name for `eks_cluster_id="..."` to the `terraform.tfvars` or use an environment variable `export TF_VAR_eks_cluster_id=xxx`.

5. Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus workspace (optional)

If you have an existing workspace, add `managed_prometheus_workspace_id=ws-xxx`
or use an environment variable `export TF_VAR_managed_prometheus_workspace_id=ws-xxx`.

If you don't specify anything a new workspace will be created for you.

6. Amazon Managed Grafana workspace

To run this example you need an Amazon Managed Grafana workspace. If you have an existing workspace, create an environment variable `export TF_VAR_managed_grafana_workspace_id=g-xxx`.

To create a new one, within this example's Terraform state (sharing the same lifecycle with all the other resources):

- Edit main.tf and set `enable_managed_grafana = true`
- Run `terraform apply -target "module.eks_observability_accelerator.module.managed_grafana[0].aws_grafana_workspace.this[0]"`.
- Run `export TF_VAR_managed_grafana_workspace_id=$(terraform output --raw managed_grafana_workspace_id)`.

7. <a name="apikey"></a> Grafana API Key

Amazon Managed Service for Grafana provides a control plane API for generating Grafana API keys. We will provide to Terraform
a short lived API key to run the `apply` or `destroy` command.
Ensure you have necessary IAM permissions (`CreateWorkspaceApiKey, DeleteWorkspaceApiKey`)

```sh
export TF_VAR_grafana_api_key=`aws grafana create-workspace-api-key --key-name "observability-accelerator-$(date +%s)" --key-role ADMIN --seconds-to-live 1200 --workspace-id $TF_VAR_managed_grafana_workspace_id --query key --output text`
```

## Deploy

```sh
terraform apply -var-file=terraform.tfvars
```

or if you had only setup environment variables, run

```sh
terraform apply
```

## Visualization

1. Prometheus datasource on Grafana

Open your Grafana workspace and under Configuration -> Data sources, you should see `aws-observability-accelerator`. Open and click `Save & test`. You should see a notification confirming that the Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus workspace is ready to be used on Grafana.

2. Grafana dashboards

Go to the Dashboards panel of your Grafana workspace. You should see a list of dashboards under the `Observability Accelerator Dashboards`

Open a specific dashboard and you should be able to view its visualization

2. Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus rules and alerts

Open the Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus console and view the details of your workspace. Under the `Rules management` tab, you should find new rules deployed.

To setup your alert receiver, with Amazon SNS, follow [this documentation](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/prometheus/latest/userguide/AMP-alertmanager-receiver.html)

## Advanced configuration

1. Cross-region Amazon Managed Prometheus workspace

If your existing Amazon Managed Prometheus workspace is in another AWS Region,
add this `managed_prometheus_region=xxx` and `managed_prometheus_workspace_id=ws-xxx`.

2. Cross-region Amazon Managed Grafana workspace

If your existing Amazon Managed Prometheus workspace is in another AWS Region,
add this `managed_prometheus_region=xxx` and `managed_prometheus_workspace_id=ws-xxx`.

## Destroy resources

If you leave this stack running, you will incur charges. To remove all resources
created by Terraform, [refresh your Grafana API key](#apikey) and run:

```sh
terraform destroy -var-file=terraform.tfvars
```
