The Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS) is a managed service for running Kubernetes on AWS and on-premises.
Amazon EKS can run on Amazon EC2 or AWS Fargate.
Integrates with Application Load Balancers, AWS IAM for RBAC and Amazon VPC.
Amazon EKS provides a scalable and highly available Kubernetes control plane running across multiple AWS Availability Zones (AZs).
Amazon EKS automatically manages availability and scalability of Kubernetes API servers and etcd persistence layer.
Amazon EKS runs the Kubernetes control plane across three AZs to ensure high availability, and automatically detects and replaces unhealthy control plane nodes.
Exam tip: The principle use case is when organizations need a consistent control plane for managing containers across hybrid clouds and multicloud environments.
