Daemon EKS, based on AWS EKS Blueprints for Terraform, is a comprehensive service that simplifies the adoption of Amazon EKS. Our service is designed to help you build tailored EKS clusters that meet your specific application requirements, integrating a wide range of open-source tools and AWS services.

Key Features:

Customizable Clusters: Provision EKS clusters with a variety of compute configurations including managed node groups, self-managed node groups, AWS Fargate profiles, and Karpenter, a Kubernetes-native autoscaler that offers flexible and responsive cluster scaling.

Operational Add-ons: Easily bootstrap an EKS cluster with Amazon EKS add-ons as well as a wide range of popular open-source add-ons, including Karpenter, istio, AWS Load Balancer Controller, Keda, ArgoCD, and more.

Multi-Team Clusters: Enable soft multi-tenancy, allowing multiple teams to run workloads in the same cluster. Configure the teams and identities that have access to a cluster, as well as the resources the teams and identities have access to.

Deployment Flexibility: Choose your preferred deployment method. Use traditional deployment with Helm, a package manager for Kubernetes, or opt for a GitOps-based approach with ArgoCD.

Observability Accelerator: Set up observability for your AWS environments with AWS-managed observability services such as Amazon Managed Service for Prometheus, Amazon Managed Grafana, AWS Distro for OpenTelemetry (ADOT), and Amazon CloudWatch.

Data on EKS: Build AWS-managed and self-managed scalable data platforms on Amazon EKS with robust Deployment Infrastructure as Code (IaC) Templates using Terraform. This includes:

• Data Analytics: Deploy tools such as Apache Spark and DASK that are designed to run on a cluster of machines.

• AI/ML Platforms: Leverage tools and technologies that have emerged to support AI/ML use cases, including TensorFlow, PyTorch, and KubeFlow.

• Job Schedulers: Use tools like Apache Airflow, Argo Workflow, and Amazon MWAA to manage and schedule jobs.

• Streaming Platforms: Access popular streaming platforms such as Apache Kafka, Apache Flink, and Apache Pulsar.

• Distributed Databases: Utilize popular distributed databases and query engines such as Apache Cassandra, Amazon DynamoDB, and Apache Presto.

• Amazon EMR on EKS: Submit Apache Spark jobs on-demand on Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS) clusters, simplifying management, reducing costs, and optimizing performance.

Why Choose Daemon EKS?

Our service is designed to make it fast and easy for you to adopt Amazon EKS. With Daemon EKS, you can configure and manage complete EKS clusters that are fully bootstrapped with the operational software needed to deploy and operate workloads. This means you can start onboarding workloads in days, rather than months. The blueprints provide a straightforward upgrade path, ensuring your EKS clusters can easily stay up-to-date with the latest features and security updates.

Importantly, Daemon EKS is founded on blueprints created by AWS, which guarantees you aren't locked into any proprietary software. This gives you the flexibility to independently maintain this solution in the future, or to seek support from other partners who utilize the same solution. As AWS EKS Service Delivery Partners, we have the expertise and experience to ensure you get the most out of your EKS deployments.
