EKS

Deploying an EKS Cluster on AWS with Spot Instances

Running Kubernetes in production means managing the control plane — API server, etcd, scheduler, controllers. That's complex. Amazon EKS handles the control plane for you, so you only manage worker nodes. And by using Spot instances for those nodes, you can cut compute costs by up to 90%. This guide covers everything from containerization fundamentals to deploying your own EKS cluster with Spot nodes. What you'll learn * How compute provisioning evolved from bare metal to containers
