Differences Between EKS and Traditional Kubernetes Clusters

 

1. Managed Control Plane:

EKS: AWS manages the Kubernetes control plane (including the API server and etcd).

Traditional Kubernetes: You are responsible for setting up and managing the control plane.

2. Scalability:

EKS: Easily scales across multiple AWS Availability Zones for high availability.

Traditional Kubernetes: Scaling and managing the high availability setup is your responsibility.

3. Security:

EKS: Integrates with AWS IAM for fine-grained permissions and integrates with other AWS security services.

Traditional Kubernetes: Requires manual setup and management of security configurations.

4. Maintenance:

EKS: AWS handles the maintenance of the control plane, including updates and patching.

Traditional Kubernetes: You are responsible for maintaining and updating the entire Kubernetes infrastructure.
