AWS Kubernetes, formally known as Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS), is a managed container orchestration service published by Amazon Web Services that automates the deployment, scaling, and management of Kubernetes applications. It eliminates the need to operate a Kubernetes control plane and integrates natively with AWS services for security, networking, and storage. Key components include Amazon EKS Standard, which manages the Kubernetes control plane across multiple Availability Zones; Amazon EKS Auto Mode, offering fully automated infrastructure provisioning for compute, storage, and networking; and EKS Capabilities such as Argo CD for GitOps continuous deployment, AWS Controllers for Kubernetes (ACK) to manage AWS resources via Kubernetes APIs, and kro (Kube Resource Orchestrator) for creating custom resource abstractions. This technology is designed for developers, DevOps engineers, platform engineers, and SREs who build, deploy, and manage scalable, production-grade containerized applications on Kubernetes, enabling them to reduce operational overhead while leveraging AWS’s security, availability, and integration capabilities.
