AWS Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS) (Jun 2018 [1]) is a managed Kubernetes solution for running containers available in AWS cloud platform since June 2018 [2]. EKS can be managed using Jenkins X software [3]. Other AWS services for running containers are ECS or Fargate.
By default EKS provides 3 master nodes and 3 etcd nodes, but are invisible to you and Amazon is responsible of Autoscaling them when needed.

Installation[edit]
helm repo add eks https://aws.github.io/eks-charts- Create your first EKS Cluster using AWS Management Console [4]
- Deploy EKS cluster using Terraform
- Helm charts:
Costs[edit]
- EKS is not included in AWS Free Tier, usually running an EKS cluster is more expensive than ECS for small deployments.
- AWS charges $0.10 per hour for each EKS cluster (aprox $72 per month) calculator
