# Worker Pools
Typhoon AWS and Google Cloud allow additional groups of workers to be defined and joined to a cluster. For example, add worker pools of instances with different types, disk sizes, Container Linux channels, or preemptibility modes.
Internal Terraform Modules:
* `aws/container-linux/kubernetes/workers`
* `google-cloud/container-linux/kubernetes/workers`
## AWS
Create a cluster following the AWS [tutorial](../aws.md#cluster). Define a worker pool using the AWS internal `workers` module.
```tf
module "tempest-worker-pool" {
source = "git::https://github.com/poseidon/typhoon//aws/container-linux/kubernetes/workers?ref=v1.10.0"
providers = {
aws = "aws.default"
}
# AWS
vpc_id = "${module.aws-tempest.vpc_id}"
subnet_ids = "${module.aws-tempest.subnet_ids}"
security_groups = "${module.aws-tempest.worker_security_groups}"
# configuration
name = "tempest-worker-pool"
kubeconfig = "${module.aws-tempest.kubeconfig}"
ssh_authorized_key = "${var.ssh_authorized_key}"
count = 2
instance_type = "m5.large"
os_channel = "beta"
}
```
Apply the change.
```
terraform apply
```
Verify an auto-scaling group of workers join the cluster within a few minutes.
### Variables
The AWS internal `workers` module supports a number of [variables](https://github.com/poseidon/typhoon/blob/master/aws/container-linux/kubernetes/workers/variables.tf).
#### Required
| Name | Description | Example |
|:-----|:------------|:--------|
| vpc_id | Must be set to `vpc_id` output by cluster | "${module.cluster.vpc_id}" |
| subnet_ids | Must be set to `subnet_ids` output by cluster | "${module.cluster.subnet_ids}" |
| security_groups | Must be set to `worker_security_groups` output by cluster | "${module.cluster.worker_security_groups}" |
| name | Unique name (distinct from cluster name) | "tempest-m5s" |
| kubeconfig | Must be set to `kubeconfig` output by cluster | "${module.cluster.kubeconfig}" |
| ssh_authorized_key | SSH public key for user 'core' | "ssh-rsa AAAAB3NZ..." |
#### Optional
| Name | Description | Default | Example |
|:-----|:------------|:--------|:--------|
| count | Number of instances | 1 | 3 |
| instance_type | EC2 instance type | "t2.small" | "t2.medium" |
| os_channel | Container Linux AMI channel | stable| "beta", "alpha" |
| disk_size | Size of the disk in GB | 40 | 100 |
| service_cidr | Must match `service_cidr` of cluster | "10.3.0.0/16" | "10.3.0.0/24" |
| cluster_domain_suffix | Must match `cluster_domain_suffix` of cluster | "cluster.local" | "k8s.example.com" |
Check the list of valid [instance types](https://aws.amazon.com/ec2/instance-types/).
## Google Cloud
Create a cluster following the Google Cloud [tutorial](../google-cloud.md#cluster). Define a worker pool using the Google Cloud internal `workers` module.
```tf
module "yavin-worker-pool" {
source = "git::https://github.com/poseidon/typhoon//google-cloud/container-linux/kubernetes/workers?ref=v1.10.0"
providers = {
google = "google.default"
}
# Google Cloud
region = "us-central1"
network = "${module.google-cloud-yavin.network_name}"
cluster_name = "yavin"
# configuration
name = "yavin-16x"
kubeconfig = "${module.google-cloud-yavin.kubeconfig}"
ssh_authorized_key = "${var.ssh_authorized_key}"
count = 2
machine_type = "n1-standard-16"
os_image = "coreos-beta"
preemptible = true
}
```
Apply the change.
```
terraform apply
```
Verify a managed instance group of workers joins the cluster within a few minutes.
```
$ kubectl get nodes
NAME STATUS AGE VERSION
yavin-controller-0.c.example-com.internal Ready 6m v1.10.0
yavin-worker-jrbf.c.example-com.internal Ready 5m v1.10.0
yavin-worker-mzdm.c.example-com.internal Ready 5m v1.10.0
yavin-16x-worker-jrbf.c.example-com.internal Ready 3m v1.10.0
yavin-16x-worker-mzdm.c.example-com.internal Ready 3m v1.10.0
```
### Variables
The Google Cloud internal `workers` module supports a number of [variables](https://github.com/poseidon/typhoon/blob/master/google-cloud/container-linux/kubernetes/workers/variables.tf).
#### Required

|:-----|:------------|:--------|
| region | Must be set to `region` of cluster | "us-central1" |
| network | Must be set to `network_name` output by cluster | "${module.cluster.network_name}" |
| name | Unique name (distinct from cluster name) | "yavin-16x" |
| cluster_name | Must be set to `cluster_name` of cluster | "yavin" |
