What do you like best about Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS)?

Maintenance overhead needed when you install a self-provisioned K8S cluster is very high. With EKS maintenance of master nodes is not needed anymore. The reliability of the service is another plus. Furthermore, the easy integration with vertical cluster autoscaler allows to scale up/down nodes saving a lot of money. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS)?

Managed master node means you can't have totale control over the cluster. Limited network management is an example. Support for the latest version of K8S is usually not really fast. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS) solving and how is that benefiting you?

With EKS we can concentrate our team effort on the infrastructure and on our applications. No more problems related to the master node management, down status, upgrades and so on. Excellent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS)?

It's absolutely wonderful of how managed your kubernetes architecture has been made so that you can focus on your actual work. For me it's getting rid of management of kubernetes components that helped me the most here. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS)?

I guess the only thing is it's logging system. I feel it could have been better if we could see container logs / events directly on console it could be better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS) solving and how is that benefiting you?

We were hosting our application on EC2 machines and it was a monolithic application. So EKS helped us break it down to microservices and then containerizaion of those applications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
