Today, I am happy to announce the general availability of Amazon EKS Anywhere, a deployment option for Amazon EKS that enables you to easily create and operate Kubernetes clusters on premises using VMware vSphere starting today.

EKS Anywhere brings a consistent AWS management experience to your data center, building on the strengths of Amazon EKS Distro, an open-source distribution for Kubernetes used by Amazon EKS.

Get Started with Amazon EKS Anywhere To get started with EKS Anywhere, you can create a bootstrap cluster in your machine for local development and test purposes.

Deploy and see a new pod running in your cluster, and forward the deployment port to your local machine with the following commands: EKS Anywhere also supports a VMWare vSphere 7.0 version or higher for production clusters.

For fully connected and partially disconnected connectivity, you can connect your EKS Anywhere clusters to the EKS console via the EKS Connector and see the cluster configuration and workload status.
