This is a quick example to assign an SSL certificate to a Kubernetes external service(which is an ELB in AWS). Tested with kops 1.8 and kubernetes 1.8.
--- apiVersion: v1 kind: Service metadata: name: my-https-service namespace: my-project labels: app: my-website-ssl annotations: service.beta.kubernetes.io/aws-load-balancer-ssl-cert: "arn:aws:acm:ap-southeast-2:xxx:certificate/xxx..." service.beta.kubernetes.io/aws-load-balancer-backend-protocol: "http" service.beta.kubernetes.io/aws-load-balancer-ssl-ports: "https" service.beta.kubernetes.io/aws-load-balancer-connection-idle-timeout: '3600' spec: type: LoadBalancer selector: app: my-website ports: - name: http port: 80 targetPort: 80 - name: https port: 443 targetPort: 80
