The kubectl tool provides direct administrative access to the Kubernetes cluster underlying a CDE service, which is useful for troubleshooting, among other things. This video will demonstrate how to set up kubectl access.

To enable kubectl, we will need a couple of prerequisites. We wiil need the kubeconfig file from the CDE service. We will need to get and authorize the IAM user, and then need to make sure that everything is set up correctly, both for kubectl and some other tools like k9s.

There are a couple of prerequisites for this operation, and we are not going to cover their installation in this video. You will need to follow the process relevant to your platform of choice to get the AWS CLI installed and configured with an IAM user. You will also need to get kubectl installed.
