Improve Kubernetes pod scheduling accuracy using Amazon EBS
In the cloud-native landscape, Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) volumes serve as the backbone for persistent storage in containerized applications. As organizations scale their Kubernetes workloads on Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS), they increasingly rely on EBS volumes to provide high-performance, durable storage for stateful applications such as databases, message queues, and data […]
Building self-managed RAG applications with Amazon EKS and Amazon S3 Vectors
Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) is a technique that optimizes large language model (LLM) outputs by referencing authoritative knowledge bases outside of the model’s training data before generating responses. This addresses common limitations of traditional LLMs, such as outdated knowledge, hallucinated facts, and misinterpreted terminology. Organizations can implement RAG to enhance their generative AI applications with current, […]
Simplify cross-account storage management with Amazon EFS and Amazon EKS
Organizations are increasingly adopting a multi-account Amazon Web Services (AWS) strategy to achieve enhanced security, governance, and operational efficiency at scale. Implementing separate accounts for production and non-production environments enables enterprises to group workloads based on business purpose, apply distinct security postures by environments, restrict access to sensitive data, and streamline cost management. You can […]
Mountpoint for Amazon S3 CSI driver v2: Accelerated performance and improved resource usage for Kubernetes workloads
Amazon S3 is the best place to build data lakes because of its durability, availability, scalability, and security. In 2023, we introduced Mountpoint for Amazon S3, an open source file client that allows Linux-based applications to access S3 objects through a file API. Shortly after, we took this one step further with the Mountpoint for […]
Backup Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS) resources using NetApp Trident Protect
Kubernetes is an open source container orchestration platform that automates the deployment, scaling, and management of containerized applications. For users running applications and workloads on Kubernetes, protecting resources and data from accidental deletion or hardware failures is crucial for maintaining business continuity and meeting compliance requirements. While Kubernetes provides high availability through its control plane […]

Modernizing on-premises applications using Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service and Amazon Elastic File System
Modern applications are expected to be available every minute of every day. Achieving the highest levels of availability requires more than setting up redundant hardware, networking, power, and other infrastructure components. You need to architect from the ground up to ensure availability in the event of natural disasters and technology failures. On-premises, this involves setting […]
