In the present day, we’re asserting EKS Dashboard, a centralized show that allows cloud architects and cluster directors to keep up organization-wide visibility throughout their Kubernetes clusters. With EKS Dashboard, clients can now monitor clusters deployed throughout totally different AWS Areas and accounts by means of a unified view, making it simpler to trace cluster stock, assess compliance, and plan operational actions like model upgrades.
As organizations scale their Kubernetes deployments, they usually run a number of clusters throughout totally different environments to reinforce availability, guarantee enterprise continuity, or keep knowledge sovereignty. Nonetheless, this distributed method could make it difficult to keep up visibility and management, particularly in decentralized setups spanning a number of Areas and accounts. In the present day, many shoppers resort to third-party instruments for centralized cluster visibility, which provides complexity by means of id and entry setup, licensing prices, and upkeep overhead.
EKS Dashboard simplifies this expertise by offering native dashboard capabilities inside the AWS Console. The Dashboard offers insights into 3 totally different assets together with clusters, managed node teams, and EKS add-ons, providing aggregated insights into cluster distribution by Area, account, model, assist standing, forecasted prolonged assist EKS management airplane prices, and cluster well being metrics. Prospects can drill down into specific knowledge factors with computerized filtering, enabling them to shortly establish and concentrate on clusters requiring consideration.
Organising EKS Dashboard
Prospects can entry the Dashboard in EKS console by means of AWS Organizations’ administration and delegated administrator accounts. The setup course of is easy and consists of merely enabling trusted entry as a one-time setup within the Amazon EKS console’s organizations settings web page. Trusted entry is out there from the Dashboard settings web page. Enabling trusted entry will permit the administration account to view the Dashboard. For extra info on setup and configuration, see the official AWS Documentation.
A fast tour of EKS Dashboard
The dashboard offers each graphical, tabular, and map views of your Kubernetes clusters, with superior filtering, and search capabilities. You may also export knowledge for additional evaluation or customized reporting.
EKS Dashboard overview with key information about your clusters.
There’s all kinds of obtainable widgets to assist visualize your clusters.
You possibly can visualize your managed node teams by occasion sort distribution, launch templates, AMI variations, and extra
There’s even a map view the place you’ll be able to see all your clusters throughout the globe.
Past EKS clusters
EKS Dashboard isn’t restricted to simply Amazon EKS clusters; it will probably additionally present visibility into linked Kubernetes clusters working on-premises or on different cloud suppliers. Whereas linked clusters could have restricted knowledge constancy in comparison with native Amazon EKS clusters, this functionality allows really unified visibility for organizations working hybrid or multi-cloud environments.
Obtainable now
EKS Dashboard is out there right now within the US East (N. Virginia) Area and is ready to mixture knowledge from all business AWS Areas. There isn’t any extra cost for utilizing the EKS Dashboard. To be taught extra, go to the Amazon EKS documentation.
This new functionality demonstrates our continued dedication to simplifying Kubernetes operations for our clients, enabling them to concentrate on constructing and scaling their functions moderately than managing infrastructure. We’re excited to see how clients use EKS Dashboard to reinforce their Kubernetes operations.
