In this post, we focus on observing and scaling ML operations (MLOps) infrastructure on Kubernetes. MLOps platforms running on Amazon EKS provide powerful built-in capabilities for logging, monitoring, and alerting that are essential for maintaining healthy ML systems at scale.

This post explores using the Amazon CloudWatch monitoring, including new Amazon EKS metrics and the CloudWatch Observability Operator, to gain deeper visibility into cluster operations, detect issues, understand bottlenecks, and maintain healthy EKS clusters.

In this deep dive, we explore advanced scenarios with Argo CD including hub-and-spoke multi-cluster deployments, native AWS service integrations, multi-tenancy implementation, scaling with advanced Argo CD configurations and integration with CI/CD pipeline.

Today, we’re excited to announce that Amazon ECR Public now offers Chainguard Wolfi Images—security-hardened, minimalist base container images that dramatically reduce vulnerabilities in your containerized applications.

Picture this: your containerized Java application that was running smoothly yesterday is now consuming 90% CPU and barely responding to user requests. Now your customers are experiencing timeouts, and your ops team is under pressure to resolve the issue quickly. When debugging unresponsive applications or excessive CPU consumption, one of the most valuable diagnostic tools […]

In this post, we demonstrate how to generate comprehensive reports for Amazon ECR repositories that include cost breakdowns, usage metrics, security scan results, and compliance status across all repositories. The solution provides two types of reports: a Repository Summary report containing attributes for tracking and optimizing cost, usage, and OS vulnerabilities, and an Image-Level report for detailed analysis of specific repository images.

Today, we are happy to announce new functionality in Amazon Elastic Container Services (Amazon ECS) that allows you to delete task definition revisions. Until now, you were only able to deregister a task definition revision and it would no longer display in your ListTaskDefinition API calls or in your Amazon ECS console, unless you specifically […]

Introduction To help customers run their Windows applications in a more streamlined manner, we launched the support for Amazon EKS Managed Node Group (MNG) support for Windows containers on December 15, 2022. Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS) MNGs automate the provisioning and lifecycle management of nodes (Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud [Amazon EC2] instances) for […]

Introduction The Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS) team is pleased to announce support for Kubernetes version 1.25 for Amazon EKS and Amazon EKS Distro. Amazon EKS Anywhere (release 0.14.2) also supports Kubernetes 1.25. The theme for this version was chosen to recognize both the diverse components that the project comprises and the individuals who […]

Introduction What is Kubernetes? I have been working on this technology since the beginning and after 8 years, I’m still having a problem defining what it is. Some people define Kubernetes as a container orchestrator but does that definition capture the essence of Kubernetes? I don’t think so. In this post, I’d like to explore […]
