These container hosts include only those components required to run as a container host, along with an optimized kernel.

64-bit (Arm) Amazon Machine Image (AMI)
Amazon Machine Image (AMI)
An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.
Version release notes
Chainguard EKS 1.34 FIPS arm64 20260330-0403
Additional details
Usage instructions
This AMI is intended for Amazon EKS worker nodes (managed node groups or self-managed node groups). Deploy it by creating a new Amazon EKS cluster or node group using eksctl and following the documentation for custom AMI support :
- Retrieve the AMI ID for your region, for example for us-east-1:
aws ssm --region us-east-1 get-parameter --name /aws/service/marketplace/prod-vvshuzc7qk6ee/latest
- Configure eksctl to use the Chainguard Container Host AMI by setting "amiFamily: AmazonLinux2023" and "ami: ami-01234567" for the node group in the configuration file. Replace the AMI ID with the one retrieved in step 1.
If you enabled SSH access via eksctl, you can connect to the instances in your node group as "ec2-user".
