A widely-used Terraform module that provisions Amazon EKS (Elastic Kubernetes Service) clusters and associated resources on AWS. It supports managed and self-managed node groups, Fargate profiles, and EKS Auto Mode.

Use cases

  • provision an eks cluster with terraform
  • create managed node groups for kubernetes on aws
  • set up fargate profiles for eks
  • deploy kubernetes cluster infrastructure as code
  • configure eks auto mode with terraform
  • bootstrap aws networking and iam for eks

When to choose

  • you are using Terraform to manage AWS infrastructure and want a battle-tested EKS module
  • you need configurable node groups, Fargate profiles, or Auto Mode support
  • you want a community-maintained module with extensive documentation and upgrade guides

When to avoid

  • you are not deploying Kubernetes on AWS
  • you use a different IaC tool like Pulumi or CloudFormation
  • you need fully custom cluster provisioning beyond what the module exposes
