* Previously: Typhoon provisions clusters with kube-system components
like CoreDNS, kube-proxy, and a chosen CNI provider (among flannel,
Calico, or Cilium) pre-installed. This is convenient since clusters
come with "batteries included". But it also means upgrading these
components is generally done in lock-step, by upgrading to a new
Typhoon / Kubernetes release
* It can be valuable to manage these components with a separate
plan/apply process or through automations and deploy systems. For
example, this allows managing CoreDNS separately from the cluster's
lifecycle.
* These "components" will continue to be pre-installed by default,
but a new `components` variable allows them to be disabled and
managed as "addons", components you apply after cluster creation
and manage on a rolling basis. For some of these, we may provide
Terraform modules to aide in managing these components.
```
module "cluster" {
# defaults
components = {
enable = true
coredns = {
enable = true
}
kube_proxy = {
enable = true
}
# Only the CNI set in var.networking will be installed
flannel = {
enable = true
}
calico = {
enable = true
}
cilium = {
enable = true
}
}
}
```
An earlier variable `install_container_networking = true/false` has
been removed, since it can now be achieved with this more extensible
and general components mechanism by setting the chosen networking
provider enable field to false.
