Running stateful workloads with HAQM EKS on AWS Fargate using HAQM EFS
With HAQM Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS), you have the choice to run Kubernetes pods on EC2 instances or AWS Fargate. AWS Fargate, a serverless compute engine for containers, allows you to run Kubernetes workloads without creating and managing servers, scaling your data plane, right-sizing EC2 instances, or dealing with worker nodes upgrades. Fargate, thus far, […]
Ship and visualize your Istio virtual service traces with AWS X-Ray
AWS X-Ray is a managed distributed tracing system that helps customers gain end-to-end visibility of requests and provides rich visualization of connected services. This post will show how customers can integrate AWS X-Ray as a backend for Zipkin traces generated from services in a Istio service mesh.
Operating a multi-regional stateless application using HAQM EKS
This post was contributed by Re Alvarez Parmar, Sr Solutions Architect, and Avi Harari, Technical Account Manager. One of the key benefits of operating on AWS is how easily customers can use AWS’s global footprint to run their workloads in multiple regions. Whether you need a multi-region architecture to support disaster recovery or bring your […]
Building a GitOps pipeline with HAQM EKS
This post is contributed by Anita Buehrle, Director of Content at Weaveworks. In the first part of this series, we discussed the history of GitOps, its benefits, and how it works. Now that you have an idea of what GitOps is all about, we’re going to dive into how to configure a GitOps pipeline with […]
Automating HAQM EKS with GitOps
This post is contributed by Anita Buehrle, Director of Content at Weaveworks. Companies want to go fast; they need to deploy more often, more reliably, and preferably with less overhead. GitOps is a fast and secure method for developers to manage and update complex applications and infrastructure running in Kubernetes. GitOps is an operations and […]

Introducing AWS Step Functions integration with HAQM EKS
This is my first post on AWS Container Blog since I joined AWS and I could not be more excited to talk about two technologies now working together: Serverless and Kubernetes, or more specifically AWS Step Functions and HAQM Elastic Kubernetes Service. In my previous role, I envisioned to build a web application that would […]
HAQM EKS now supports provisioning and managing EC2 Spot Instances in managed node groups
This post was contributed by Ran Sheinberg, Principal Solutions Architect and Deepthi Chelupati, Sr Product Manager HAQM Elastic Kubernetes Service (HAQM EKS) makes it easy to run upstream, secure, and highly available Kubernetes clusters on AWS. In 2019, support for managed node groups was added, with EKS provisioning and managing the underlying EC2 Instances (worker […]
Introducing the new HAQM EKS console
Since its launch at re:Invent 2017, HAQM Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS) has rapidly evolved to meet the needs of production Kubernetes users. Customers such as Intel, Snap, Intuit, GoDaddy, and Autodesk trust HAQM EKS to run their most sensitive and mission critical applications because of its security, reliability, and scalability. One thing missing from HAQM […]
Introducing HAQM EKS add-ons: lifecycle management for Kubernetes operational software
From the start, our goal with HAQM Elastic Kubernetes Service (HAQM EKS) has been to build a fully managed service that makes it easy for you to run Kubernetes on AWS without needing to be an expert in managing Kubernetes clusters. When HAQM EKS first launched, that meant a fully managed Kubernetes control plane. In […]
