## What it is
A collection of official Helm charts maintained by AWS for deploying common AWS integrations on Amazon EKS Kubernetes clusters. It includes charts for App Mesh, AWS Load Balancer Controller, VPC CNI, CloudWatch metrics, Fluent Bit logging, and more.

## Use cases
- deploy aws load balancer controller on eks
- install app mesh on kubernetes
- add cloudwatch metrics agent to eks cluster
- set up vpc cni networking for pods
- ship cluster logs with fluent bit to aws
- helm charts for amazon eks addons

## When to choose
- you run workloads on Amazon EKS and want AWS-supported Helm charts
- you need to install AWS controllers like the Load Balancer Controller or VPC CNI
- you want App Mesh, CloudWatch, or Fluent Bit integration on Kubernetes

## When to avoid
- you are not using AWS or EKS
- you need charts for services that have moved to their own repositories or Public ECR (several charts here are deprecated)
- you prefer manifests or Terraform over Helm
