Summary

Converts the ACK DynamoDB lab (automation/controlplanes/ack) from a self-managed
Helm-based controller to a fully managed Amazon EKS Capability.

Changes

Infrastructure (manifests/modules/automation/controlplanes/ack/.workshop/)

  • main.tf: Replaced Helm chart + IRSA with aws_eks_capability, capability IAM role
    (trusts capabilities.eks.amazonaws.com), access entry + AmazonEKSACKPolicy, and a 30s
    IAM propagation wait.
  • outputs.tf: Removed ACK_IAM_ROLE (no longer needed); kept CARTS_IAM_ROLE.
  • vars.tf: Removed dynamo_ack_version (no Helm chart to pin).
  • cleanup.sh: Removed uninstall-helm-chart (no Helm release to uninstall).

Content (English + Japanese)

  • Updated index.md, introduction.md, how-it-works.md, provision-resources.md
    to reflect the managed capability model. No changes to configure-application.md.

Testing

  • make test module="automation/controlplanes/ack" passed 5/5 (including destroy + recreate cycle).
  • Manual end-to-end run confirmed: capability ACTIVE, DynamoDB table provisioned via ACK CR, carts app functional.

Provision ACK for DynamoDB via the managed Amazon EKS ACK capability
instead of a self-managed Helm-installed controller.

- Terraform: add capability IAM role, cluster access entry +
  AmazonEKSACKPolicy association, and an IAM propagation wait so the
  capability creates/recreates reliably across lab resets; drop the
  IRSA controller role and Helm-only outputs/vars
- cleanup.sh: remove the Helm uninstall step
- Content (en + ja): update index, introduction, how-it-works and
  provision-resources to reflect the fully managed capability model
