AWS Lambda for the containers developer
Introduction When building an application on AWS, one of the common decision points customers encounter is building on AWS Lambda versus building on a containers product like Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) or Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS). To make this decision, there are many factors to consider such as cost, scaling properties, […]
Start Pods faster by prefetching images
Introduction Many AWS customers use Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS) to run machine learning workloads. Containerization allows machine learning engineers to package and distribute models easily, while Kubernetes helps in deploying, scaling, and improving. When working with customers that run machine learning training jobs in Kubernetes, we ‘ve seen that as the data set […]
Enable continuous deployment based on semantic versioning using AWS App Runner
Introduction In this modern cloud era, customers automatically build, test, and deploy the new version of their application multiple times a day. This common scenario in the software development life cycle creates faster delivery of features, bug fixes, and other updates to end users. One key aspect of continuous deployment is semantic versioning, a system […]
Implement Amazon ECS Anywhere enhanced workload resilience in disconnected scenarios
Introduction Amazon Elastic Container Service (ECS) Anywhere is a feature of Amazon ECS that lets you run and manage container workloads on your infrastructure. This feature helps you meet compliance requirements and scale your business without sacrificing your on-premises investments.

Part 1: Multi-Cluster GitOps using Amazon EKS, Flux, and Crossplane
Introduction GitOps is a way of managing application and infrastructure deployment so that the whole system is described declaratively in a Git repository. It’s an operational model that offers you the ability to manage the state of multiple Kubernetes clusters using the best practices of version control, immutable artifacts, and automation. Organizations have adopted GitOps […]
