Elasticity and cost have always been major factors in improving the operational efficiency of organizations, which in turn drives business transformation and agility. Elasticity is defined as the ability of the infrastructure (including application) to be able to seamlessly scale out and scale in based on the load. This is also called auto scaling. If […]

Since publication, we reduced the price for HAQM Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS) by 50% to $0.10 per hour for each Kubernetes cluster that you run.  This post was contributed by AWS Container Hero, Casey Lee, Director of Engineering for Liatrio The combination of HAQM EKS for a managed Kubernetes control plane and HAQM EC2 for […]
