Announcing expanded support for Cilium with Amazon EKS Hybrid Nodes <p>Today, Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS) expands support for Cilium as the Container Networking Interface (CNI) for Amazon EKS Hybrid Nodes. Cilium is a Cloud-Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) graduated project that provides core networking capabilities for Kubernetes workloads. Now, you can receive support from AWS for a broader set of Cilium features when using Cilium with Amazon EKS Hybrid Nodes including application ingress, in-cluster load balancing, Kubernetes network policies, and kube-proxy replacement mode.<br> <br> Kubernetes clusters require a CNI for connectivity between pods running in the cluster, but most Kubernetes applications require additional components, such as ingress controllers and load balancers, to serve and secure network traffic with other external systems or users. These additional capabilities are integrated features of Cilium, built on Cilium’s eBPF-powered networking and security. Now, Amazon EKS Hybrid Nodes users can receive support from AWS for Cilium’s Ingress and Gateway features, Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) Control Plane, Load Balancer IP Address Management (LB IPAM), kube-proxy replacement, and Kubernetes network policies.<br> <br> AWS supports the Amazon VPC CNI for Amazon EKS nodes in AWS Cloud, which is optimized for Amazon VPC networking with built-in features such as enhanced subnet discovery, Kubernetes network policies, and multiple network interfaces per pod. Cilium support for Amazon EKS Hybrid Nodes is available in all AWS Regions where Amazon EKS Hybrid Nodes is available. To learn more about Cilium support for Amazon EKS Hybrid Nodes, see <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/eks/latest/userguide/hybrid-nodes-cni.html">Configure CNI for hybrid nodes</a> in the Amazon EKS User Guide.</p>

Amazon EKS adds safety control to prevent accidental cluster deletion <p>Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS) now supports deletion protection, helping you prevent accidental termination of your EKS clusters. When enabled, deletion protection requires explicit disablement before a cluster can be deleted, providing an additional safety control for critical environments.<br> <br> Deletion protection is turned off by default for all new and existing clusters. You can enable deletion protection during cluster creation or any time after. To delete a protected cluster, you must first disable deletion protection for the cluster and then proceed with the cluster deletion. This two-step verification process helps prevent unintended deletions that could result from automation errors or accidental commands, especially in environments where multiple users share cluster management responsibilities.<br> <br> Once enabled, any attempt to delete the cluster through the AWS Management Console, EKS APIs, AWS Command Line Interface (CLI), eksctl, or infrastructure as code tools like AWS CloudFormation will be blocked until deletion protection is disabled. This feature is available in all commercial AWS Regions and the AWS GovCloud (US) Regions. To learn more, visit the Amazon EKS <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/eks/latest/userguide/deletion-protection.html" target="_blank">documentation</a>.</p>

Scaling beyond IPv4: integrating IPv6 Amazon EKS clusters into existing Istio Service Mesh Organizations are increasingly adopting IPv6 for their Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS) deployments, driven by three key factors: depletion of private IPv4 addresses, the need to streamline or eliminate overlay networks, and improved network security requirements on Amazon Web Services (AWS). In IPv6-enabled EKS clusters, each pod receives a unique IPv6 address from the […]

Deep dive into cluster networking for Amazon EKS Hybrid Nodes In this post, we dive deep into cluster networking configurations for Amazon EKS Hybrid Nodes, exploring different Container Network Interface (CNI) options and load balancing solutions to meet various networking requirements. The post demonstrates how to implement BGP routing with Cilium CNI, static routing with Calico CNI, and set up both on-premises load balancing using MetalLB and external load balancing using AWS Load Balancer Controller.

Amazon EKS now supports up to 100,000 worker nodes per cluster <p>Today, <a href="https://aws.amazon.com/pm/eks/" target="_blank">Amazon EKS</a> announces support for up to 100,000 worker nodes in a cluster, enabling you to run ultra scale AI/ML training and inference workloads in a single cluster. With <a href="https://aws.amazon.com/ec2/instance-types/" target="_blank">Amazon EC2’s</a> new generation accelerated computing instance types, 100,000 worker nodes support up to 1.6 million <a href="https://aws.amazon.com/ai/machine-learning/trainium/">Trainium</a> chips with Trn2 instances and 800,000 NVIDIA GPUs with P5 and P6 instances in a single cluster. This enables you to run ultra scale AI/ML workloads that require all compute accelerators to be available within a single cluster, as these workloads cannot be easily distributed across multiple clusters.<br> <br> The most advanced AI models with trillions of parameters demonstrate significantly enhanced capabilities in understanding context, reasoning, and solving complex tasks. To build and operate these increasingly powerful models, organizations require access to massive numbers of compute accelerators in a single cluster. Consolidated access to such a large pool of compute accelerators delivers crucial benefits: allows organizations to build and deploy more powerful AI models than ever before, reduces costs by efficiently sharing compute accelerators between training and inference workloads, and enables seamless use of existing AI/ML tools and frameworks that are not designed to work across clusters.<br> <br> To learn more, see the launch blog.</p>

Amazon EMR on EKS now supports Service Quotas <p>Today, Amazon EMR on EKS announces support for Service Quotas, improving visibility and control over EMR on EKS quotas.<br> <br> Previously, to request an increase for EMR on EKS quotas, such as maximum number of StartJobRun API calls per second, customers had to open a support ticket and wait for the support team to process the increase. Now, customers can view and manage their EMR on EKS quota limits directly in the <a href="https://us-east-1.console.aws.amazon.com/servicequotas/home/services/emr-containers/quotas" target="_blank">Service Quotas console</a>. This enables automated limit increase approvals for eligible requests, improving response times and reducing the number of support tickets. Customers can also set up Amazon CloudWatch alarms to get automatically notified when their usage reaches a certain percentage of a maximum quota.<br> <br> Amazon EMR on EKS support for Service Quotas is available in all Regions where Amazon EMR on EKS is currently available. To get started, visit the <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/servicequotas/latest/userguide/intro.html" target="_blank">Service Quotas User Guide</a>.</p>
