Learn how to install Kerno on your Kubernetes cluster

To install Kerno on your cluster, you will need your invite code. You can request an invite code here.

Go to app.kerno.io, sign up using your email address, and follow the onboarding instructions.

Prerequisites

  1. AWS Login: Log into AWS with admin privileges.

  2. OIDC (OpenID Connect) Provider

    An OIDC Provider is required for your EKS cluster to support Kerno’s functionality. This is typically configured for EKS clusters. Since the OIDC Provider can be used for multiple services, including Kerno, we recommend you manage it within your cluster setup.

Depending on whether you have set your AWS credentials as environment variables or in the .aws/credentials Use one of the following methods:
