Why EKS Hybrid Nodes?
Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS) Hybrid Nodes enables you to use on-premises and edge infrastructure as nodes in Amazon EKS clusters. EKS Hybrid Nodes unifies Kubernetes management across cloud, on-premises, and edge environments, giving you the flexibility to run your workloads anywhere, while driving higher availability, scalability, and efficiency. EKS Hybrid Nodes standardizes Kubernetes operations and tooling across environments and natively integrates with AWS services for centralized monitoring, logging, and identity management. EKS Hybrid Nodes reduces the time and effort required for managing Kubernetes on premises and at the edge by offloading the availability and scalability of your Kubernetes control plane to AWS. EKS Hybrid Nodes can run on your existing infrastructure to accelerate modernization without additional hardware investment.
Improve operational efficiency by unifying Kubernetes operations
Unify your Kubernetes operations across cloud and on-premises environments with Amazon EKS Hybrid Nodes. Amazon EKS Hybrid Nodes use the same Amazon EKS clusters you use to run applications in the cloud, reducing the operational complexity of managing multiple different Kubernetes systems across environments.
Reduce the total cost of managing Kubernetes
Offload the security, availability, and scalability of the Kubernetes control plane to AWS for your on-premises and edge deployments, simplifying management and eliminating the burden of maintaining this infrastructure yourself. With EKS Hybrid Nodes you can conserve your on-premises infrastructure for your applications and can streamline how you run hybrid applications across environments.
Leverage the benefits of the AWS Cloud on premises
Integrate with a range of AWS services to simplify, scale, and secure your hybrid application deployments. EKS Hybrid Nodes natively integrates with a breadth of Amazon EKS features as well as centralized logging, monitoring, and identity management to accelerate your modernization efforts.
Gain the flexibility to run your workloads anywhere
Run your workloads anywhere—on premises, at the edge, or in the cloud—to meet your low latency, data, regulatory, or policy requirements. Leverage any on-premises commodity hardware or virtual machines with Amazon EKS clusters, maximizing the value of your existing infrastructure investments. At the same time, Amazon EKS Hybrid Nodes delivers the scalability, availability, and efficiency of the AWS Cloud, so you can modernize at your own pace.
