Episode 67: Amazon EKS

August 31, 2025 · 18 min

Show notes

In this episode, we explore Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS), a fully managed service that makes it easy to run Kubernetes on AWS without needing to install or manage your own Kubernetes control plane. Kubernetes has become the de facto standard for container orchestration, and EKS provides a highly available, scalable platform for running containerized applications. We’ll explain the core concepts of Kubernetes, such as pods, services, and deployments, and how EKS simplifies the management of these resources by automating tasks like patching, scaling, and cluster management.

We’ll also discuss how EKS integrates with AWS services like IAM for access control, CloudWatch for monitoring, and AWS Fargate for serverless compute. Whether you’re new to Kubernetes or already have experience, EKS streamlines the process of deploying, managing, and scaling Kubernetes clusters in the cloud. By the end of this episode, you’ll understand how to leverage Amazon EKS to run containerized applications at scale with ease and security.
