Building and deploying Fargate with EKS in an enterprise context using the AWS Cloud Development Kit and cdk8s+

Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS) is a fully managed service that helps customers run their Kubernetes (K8s) clusters at scale by minimizing the effort required to operate the Kubernetes control plane. When you combine Amazon EKS to manage the cluster (the control plane) with AWS Fargate to provision and run pod infrastructure (the data […]

Announcing Amazon ECS deployment circuit breaker

Today, we announced the Amazon ECS deployment circuit breaker for EC2 and Fargate compute types. With this feature, Amazon ECS customers can now automatically roll back unhealthy service deployments without the need for manual intervention. This empowers customers to quickly discover failed deployments, while not having to worry about resources being consumed for failing tasks, […]

Announcing the General Availability of Amazon ECS Service Extensions for AWS CDK

In late 2018, we first shared an introduction to using AWS Cloud Development Kit with Amazon ECS. In the almost two years since that article, countless developers have discovered that they enjoy deploying containers to Amazon Elastic Container Service (ECS) and AWS Fargate by writing infrastructure as code using a declarative SDK in their preferred […]

Announcing Java support for cdk8s

Today, we are announcing Java support for cdk8s, the Cloud Development Kit for Kubernetes. This rounds out support for the top 3 most popular programming languages and probably the single most used here at Amazon. Now, you can leave YAML behind and define your Kubernetes applications in Typescript, Python, and Java. In this tutorial, we’ll […]

Automating Amazon EKS cluster testing with custom machine images

AWS recently launched a new service, EC2 Image Builder, which automates and simplifies the creation, maintenance, and validation of Amazon Machine Images (AMIs). Many of our customers are using this service to generate their own customized, hardened images. In this post, we will demonstrate how you can automatically test your Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon […]

Introducing cdk8s+: Intent-driven APIs for Kubernetes objects

At AWS, we’ve been exploring new approaches of making it easier to define Kubernetes applications. Last month, we announced the alpha release of cdk8s, an open-source project that enables you to use general purpose programming languages to synthesize manifests. Today, I would like to tell you about cdk8s+ (cdk8s-plus), which we believe is the natural […]

Introducing CDK for Kubernetes

At AWS, we’ve seen customers rapidly adopt Kubernetes to deploy applications globally, train machine learning models at scale, and standardize how they deliver innovation across data centers and the cloud. Using Kubernetes, customers are building automated tooling to replace manual processes, implementing operational pipelines for every piece of their infrastructure, and empowering development teams with […]
