AWS Controllers for Kubernetes (ACK) is a collection of Kubernetes custom resource definitions and controllers that let you define and manage AWS service resources (S3, RDS, DynamoDB, Lambda, and more) directly from Kubernetes manifests. It provides a common runtime, code generator, and 50+ service controllers enabling declarative, GitOps-friendly AWS infrastructure management.
Use cases
- provision aws resources from kubernetes yaml
- manage aws infrastructure with gitops
- create s3 buckets and rds databases via kubernetes crds
- replace terraform for aws resource management in k8s
- drift detection and reconciliation of aws resources
- manage aws resources across accounts and regions from one cluster
When to choose
- your workloads run on kubernetes and you want aws dependencies managed declaratively in-cluster
- you practice gitops and want infrastructure manifests versioned alongside app code
- you want kubernetes-native reconciliation and drift detection for aws resources
When to avoid
- you don't use kubernetes - use terraform, cloudformation, or pulumi instead
- you need a service controller still in the Preview maintenance phase for production
- you need complex multi-cloud provisioning beyond aws services
