Streamline production grade clusters with HAQM AFT and Terraform EKS Blueprints

AWS users need to continuously enhance their infrastructure and security processes. This typically involves a two-phase approach: discovery and design, followed by implementation. In the discovery phase, an assessment of the current infrastructure is conducted, leading to the creation of architecture documents and patterns for the subsequent implementation phase. This process delves into Account Structure, […]

Automating custom networking to solve IPv4 exhaustion in HAQM EKS

Introduction When HAQM VPC Container Network Interface (CNI) plugin assigns IPv4 addresses to Pods, it allocates them from the VPC CIDR range assigned to the cluster. While it makes Pods first-class citizens within the VPC network, it often leads to exhaustion of the limited number of IPv4 addresses available in the VPCs. The long term […]

Microservices development using AWS controllers for Kubernetes (ACK) and HAQM EKS blueprints

Introduction Microservices architectures make applications easier to scale and faster to develop, which enables innovation and accelerating time-to-market for new features. For business applications with multiple clients (web, mobile, desktop, and smart devices), the application programming interface (API) Gateway microservices design pattern is helpful for adding centralized control and security. Containers and serverless are two […]

Continuous Deployment and GitOps delivery with HAQM EKS Blueprints and ArgoCD

Continuous Deployment and GitOps delivery with HAQM EKS Blueprints and ArgoCD

Introduction Kubernetes platform teams want to automate their HAQM EKS environments configurations using an automated pipeline. Users also need a prescriptive way for managing and setting up GitOps-based delivery for the organization’s applications teams. Customers need the freedom and flexibility for their application teams to deploy and configure their applications, once they have been onboarded […]

Using AWS Proton as a provisioning mechanism for HAQM EKS clusters

AWS customers have a number of options they can use to deploy HAQM Elastic Kubernetes Service (HAQM EKS) clusters. They can use the EKS console workflows, the eksctl CLI, the AWS Cloud Development Kit (AWS CDK), or several other options. There is often a single Ops-savvy user (or team) picking one of these options to […]

Bootstrapping clusters with EKS Blueprints Title

Bootstrapping clusters with EKS Blueprints

Today, we are introducing a new open-source project called EKS Blueprints that makes it easier and faster for you to adopt HAQM Elastic Kubernetes Service (HAQM EKS). EKS Blueprints is a collection of Infrastructure as Code (IaC) modules that will help you configure and deploy consistent, batteries-included EKS clusters across accounts and regions. You can […]
