Introduction In today’s interconnected world, communication faces evolving security threats. From sensitive financial transactions in online banking to secure data transmissions in the automobile industry, ensuring trust and authenticity between businesses is becoming more and more critical. This is where Mutual Transport Layer Security (mTLS) can be an option to offer enhanced security through advanced […]

Introduction So far, in Part 1 and Part 2 of this blog series we covered the foundational aspects of HAQM Elastic Kubernetes Service (HAQM EKS) IPv6 clusters and highlighted key patterns for implementing IPv6 to future-proof your networks. Besides configuring your IPv6 HAQM EKS clusters, migration to the world of IPv6 involves careful infrastructure planning […]

Introduction In Part 1 of this blog series we covered the foundation of HAQM Elastic Kubernetes Service (HAQM EKS) IPv6 clusters and the deep integration into the underlying HAQM Virtual Private Cloud (HAQM VPC) dual-stack IP mode. As customers evaluate their migration strategies to IPv6 to harness the benefits of scale and simplicity, they need […]

Introduction Scaling Kubernetes networking is key to addressing the growth of services and future-proofing infrastructure as the digital landscape continues to evolve. The need for a unique IP address per pod intersects with the challenges of limited IPv4 address space. The finite pool of available IPv4 addresses often forces Kubernetes cluster administrators to use alternatives […]
