Amazon EKS Distro (EKS-D) is a Kubernetes distribution based on and used by Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS) to create reliable and secure Kubernetes clusters. With EKS-D, you can rely on the same versions of Kubernetes and its dependencies deployed by Amazon EKS. This includes the latest upstream updates, as well as extended security patching support. EKS-D follows the same Kubernetes version release cycle as Amazon EKS, and we provide the bits here. EKS-D offers the same software that has enabled tens of thousands of Kubernetes clusters on Amazon EKS.

This GitHub repository has everything required to build the components that make up the EKS Distro from source.

Kubernetes 1-18: DEPRECATED

EKS Distro has discontinued support of Kubernetes v1.18. While there are no plans to remove the 1.18 images from EKS Distro ECR, there will be no more updates, including security updates, for 1.18.

Due to the increased security risk this poses, it is HIGHLY recommended that users of 1.18 update to a supported version (1.19 - 1.22) as soon as possible.

Development

The EKS Distro is built using Prow, the Kubernetes CI/CD system. EKS operates an installation of Prow, which is visible at https://prow.eks.amazonaws.com/. Please read our CONTRIBUTING guide before making a Pull Request.

For building EKS Distro locally, refer to the building-locally guide.

Security

If you discover a potential security issue in this project, or think you may have discovered a security issue, we ask that you notify AWS Security via our vulnerability reporting page. Please do not create a public GitHub issue.
