Amazon Web Services (AWS)
If you want to deploy software on top of AWS, you will need to provide harpoon with an access key ID and a secret access key. Since harpoon is deploying all of the necessary infrastructure in AWS in addition to the Kubernetes cluster, we require fairly extensive access to the account in order to successfully perform the provisioning of the environment. The following are the specific permissions harpoon needs to successfully deploy a cluster:
AmazonRDSFullAccess
IAMFullAccess
AmazonEC2FullAccess
AmazonVPCFullAccess
AmazonS3FullAccess
AWSKeyManagementServicePowerUser
Also note that harpoon does provision virtual infrastructure in your AWS account, so while harpoon will not interfere with any other virtual infrastructure in your AWS account, you could always potentially run into hitting a resource limit that might require you to request a higher limit for a particular resource.
